Kashmir Schools and Colleges Closed for Two Days Amid Security Measures and Protests

Schools, colleges, and universities across Kashmir have been closed for two days starting March 2, 2026, with exams postponed, following heightened security measures amid protests triggered by reports of Iran's Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei's death in US-Israeli strikes. The closures aim to maintain public order and ensure student safety amid ongoing restrictions and drone intrusions near the Line of Control. Security has been intensified, especially in Srinagar's Shia-majority areas, with authorities monitoring the situation closely.
