Srinagar, Oct. 4 -- Ladakh Lt Governor Kavinder Gupta on Friday reviewed the security situation in the Union territory as all schools up to class 8 reopened in violence-hit Leh after nine-days closure, officials said.

"Lt governor @KavinderGupta chaired a high-level security review meeting today to assess the prevailing law and order and overall security scenario in the Union territory," LG office wrote on X.

The officials said Gupta convened the meeting in Leh shortly after his return from Jammu where he had gone on previous day to attend a religious event.
