Srinagar, Jul 13 (IBNS) : Jammu and Kashmir Chief Minister Mehbooba Mufti on Wednesday paid tributes to the martyrs of the 1931 struggle against the Dogra rule and appealed for calm in the strife-torn Kashmir.

Under heavy security, Mehbooba Mufti went to the graveyard at Naqashband Sahib area of Old Srinagar where a guard of honour was presented to her.

The Chief Minister appealed for peace in the valley where violence that erupted since the killing of a top militant, Burhan Wani, on July 8 has left about 35 people dead and hundreds injured.

She laid a wreath at the graveyard to commemorate those killed by the Dogra Maharaja's soldiers on this day in 1931 outside the Central Jail in Srinagar.
