National daily newspapers hit the stands in Kashmir today for the first time since the eruption of the ongoing unrest 75 days ago following killing of Hizbul Mujahideen commander Burhan Wani in an encounter with security forces on July 8.
The subscribers of the national dailies, both English language and in Hindi, got their copies today, Hilal Ahmad, a newspaper vendor, said.
He said it was after 75 days that the national dailies are back in circulation in the valley.
"However, very few copies are being brought in as the newspapers cannot be delivered to areas badly affected by the unrest," Ahmad said.
