Dehra Dun, Oct 28 (PTI) Curfew has been fully lifted from the industrial town of Rudrapur in Kumaon region, where four people were killed and scores of others injured in communal riots over an alleged act of sacrilege earlier this month, an official said. As the festival of Diwali passed off peacefully, the administration decided to lift night curfew as well from last night, Udhamsingh Nagar District Magistrate P S Jangpangi said. The administration was giving relaxation in day curfew since October 5 but night curfew was being continued keeping in view the tense situation in the town, he said. However, prohibitory orders under Section 144 CrPC would remain in force for some more days, the DM added.
