Curfew & army leave Siliguri OUR CORRESPONDENT Siliguri, Sept. 30: Normality returned to the city today as curfew was lifted from all areas a little after noon. Except for 11 places around the court and the scenes of Friday’s street battle, the curfew had been lifted in most of the town yesterday. The army withdrew its forces by evening. However, a company of the BSF is still deployed in the Kutchery Road area, where rumours had sparked off the eight-hour battle. Some among the Nepalese people, who had brought out a rally to protest against a radio jockey’s comments against Indian Idol 3 winner Prashant Tamang, were wrongly accused of hooliganism, which led to the fight. Eight persons have been held for instigating the violence. Three persons, who are in hospital, will be arrested after they are discharged, Siliguri deputy superintendent of police Indra Chakraborty said. Shops and other business establishments worked as usual today and transport was normal. Educational institutions will reopen on October 3.
