SRINAGAR, India (Reuters) - India will on Thursday lift an advisory asking tourists and pilgrims to leave Jammu & Kashmir, further rolling back steps taken during a crackdown launched before the government took away the Muslim majority state's special status two months ago.
Even as the state government issued its statement on Monday night saying the travel advisory would be lifted, persistent security risks were manifest as a military official said a "terrorist" had been killed in a firefight the same evening.
