Jammu-Srinagar Highway Closed Due to Landslides Amid Rains

SRINAGAR: The Jammu-Srinagar National Highway has been shut down for traffic due to landslides amid continuous rains in Ramban.

Reports said that the cracks have emerged in the mountains in Mehad, Kishtwadi Patthar, and Gangru Ramsu area, leading to a complete closure of the highway.

In addition, vehicular movement has also been halted from both directions as continuous rainfall has triggered the falling of large rocks from the mountains.

Efforts are underway by the administration to clear the landslides, with teams working since 5 am to remove debris and stones, as per an official.
