As normalcy was returning to Sirsa city, relaxation in curfew was given from early morning till 9 PM, Deputy Commissioner J Ganesan said here today.

He said shops opened in the morning and people came out of their homes to purchase necessary items.

"Also, the district administration today made special arrangements in Sirsa city on the occasion of birth anniversary of Guru Nanak Dev, and Shah Mastana of Dera Sacha Sauda," he said.

The routes were decided for vehicles of devotees coming from outside to attend both the celebrations, Ganesan said.

He said regular patrolling was being done by paramilitary forces and teams of Haryana Police in the city.

Curfew was clamped in most parts of the city on November 24 after a clash in which 12 persons were injured and six vehicles set ablaze near Balmiki Chowk when some Sikhs were on their way back from a meeting in Gurdwara Dashmi Patshahi.
