Burhan Wani”s killing in an encounter with security forces in July 2016 in South Kashmir had triggered a massive five-month summer agitation in Kashmir that left over 100 people dead and thousands injured.
The administration has directed all departments including the education department to ensure that flag hoisting is held in all offices on 15 August.(PTI)
