Curfew in violence-hit Mendhar town of Poonch district of Jammu and Kashmir continued for 10th day today.
"Curfew is on in Mendhar border town. The law and order situation is better and peace is prevailing in the town," senior superintendent of police (SSP), Poonch, Man Mohan Singh said.
Curfew was yesterday relaxed for three hours in Mendhar town, which passed off peacefully last evening.
Curfew was imposed in the town after three persons were killed in police firing to quell a mob trying to set ablaze a missionary school while protesting the alleged desecration of a holy book in the US on Wednesday last.
