Security has been beefed up across Kashmir ahead of Union Home Minister Amit Shah’s first visit to the Valley after the abrogation of Article 370 on Saturday.
A thick security cover has been thrown around the BJP office at Jawahar Nagar in Srinagar where Shah is likely to pay a visit.

Similarly, roads leading to Sher-i-Kashmir International Convention Centre have been made off-limits for three days from Saturday as the Union home minister is expected to attend an event there.
A PTI report quoting sources said 50 companies of additional paramilitary forces are being inducted into the valley in the wake of the recent spate of civilian killings.
Bunkers manned by paramilitary CRPF have come up in several areas of Srinagar as well in other parts of the valley.
The mobile internet services on a dozen towers -- mostly in the areas where non-local labourers were killed in the past week -- were snapped three days ago as part of the security measures.
Police have started stringent checking of documents of two-wheelers plying on the roads and many have been seized by police.
However, IGP, Kashmir zone, Vijay Kumar had said these steps were purely related to terror violence.
