Bareilly, March 17, 2010 (PTI) - Curfew was relaxed for 11 hours in trouble-hit localities of the city on Wednesday as no untoward incident was reported.
“Situation is completely normal and curfew in five police areas - Prem Nagar, Qila, Baradari, Kotwali and Subhash Nagar - has been relaxed further for 11 hours from 6 am to 5 pm, on Wednesday morning,” the officials said.
The administration has also lifted restriction on plying of two-wheelers in the city.
“Senior citizens and those moving with families have been allowed to use two—wheelers,” they said, adding restriction on four-wheelers would continue.
Besides, restrictions on fairs organised on the occasion of ‘navratri’ festival would continued till further orders, they said, adding security had been beefed up at temples across the city.

It was later extended to one more police area after fresh violence on March 11.
