Srinagar, Apr 18 (IBNS): Educational institutions remained closed on Tuesday in the Kashmir Valley in view of the widespread student protests on Monday.

The universities, colleges and Higher Secondary level institutions remained closed after orders were issued by Divisional Commissioner Kashmir Baseer Khan yesterday.

After widespread student protests in the valley, all educational institutions were closed as a precautionary measure to prevent further protests, official said.

On Monday, scores of students of many different institutions across the valley held demonstrations against the alleged high- handedness of security forces against the students of Degree College Pulwama on Saturday.

Meanwhile, Kashmir University and Islamic University of Science and Technology Awantipora have postponed all examinations which were scheduled to be held on Tuesday.
