Srinagar, Feb 4: Kashmir lost its only all-girls rock band on Monday as its three teenage members decided to call it quits, a day after the Grand Mufti issued a fatwa terming singing as un-Islamic and asked them to abandon it.




Although the girls have maintained silence over the issue, sources close to them said, they have decided to quit singing and music.
