Jat stir: Situation improving, rail, road traffic resumes in Haryana

In Haryana, life is returning to normal as highway and rail traffic was restored even as security forces were on alert to foil any untoward incidents. Curfew was today lifted in Hisar district and relaxed in violence-hit Rohtak and Bhiwani districts while rail and road traffic resumed on routes which had remained blocked for over a week due to the Jat stir that claimed 19 lives. <br/><br/>In Bhiwani, one of the worst-affected districts in the agitation, authorities gave a four-hour relaxation in curfew. Day-long relaxation in curfew was given in Rohtak, the epicentre of the pro quota agitation, where extensive damage has been caused to property. <br/><br/>Life is also returning to normal in violence-hit Sonipat, where three persons had died in a clash with security forces two days back. Security forces are patrolling sensitive areas including Bhiwani, Hisar, Sonipat and Rohtak, officials said.
