The lockdown is expected to last at least through Thursday, India's independence day.

But residents were running short of essentials under the near-constant curfew and communications blackout as India tried to stave off a violent reaction to the government's decision Aug. 5 to strip Kashmir of its autonomy. India said its decisions to revoke Kashmir's special constitutional status and downgrade it from statehood to a territory would free it from separatism.
