Srinagar , India ( CNN ) -- Four people were killed and eight others wounded Wednesday when police fired on demonstrators in the town of Mendhar in India 's Jammu and Kashmir state , a local official said . Later , in the northern Kashmiri town of Sobore , police opened fire to quell stone-pelting protesters . One person was critically injured and later died in hospital , police said . The protests , triggered by allegations of the desecration of the Quran in the United States , quickly turned into the violent anti-India demonstrations that have taken place all summer in India 's restive Kashmir region . Monday was the bloodiest day yet : 18 people were killed and 80 others wounded in demonstrations against India and the United States . Protesters torched two Christian missionary schools and several government buildings , after which the Indian government imposed a round-the-clock curfew , forcing a complete lock-down on the region and creating shortages in essential items including baby food , milk and produce . All flights in and out of Srinagar , the summer capital of Jammu and Kashmir state , were suspended for the first time in a decade . Indian police were out in force on the streets of Srinagar , keeping residents hunkered down in their homes . But demonstrations in support of Kashmiri independence have continued and police have met angry crowds with the force of batons and the sting of teargas . So far this summer , 89 people have died in anti-India demonstrations in Kashmir , the predominantly Muslim part of Jammu and Kashmir state where many favor severing ties with New Delhi . Divisional Commissioner Pawan Kotwal told CNN that protesters tried to burn down another school run by Christian missionaries in Mendhar , a Muslim town southwest of Srinagar that is in the predominantly Hindu area of the state . He said an indefinite curfew has also been imposed in Mendhar .
The anti-India protests were fueled by Quran desecration reports . Score: 7 But violent demonstrations are continuing .
