1000's Remain Stranded on Srinagar-Jammu Highway

Srinagar- The heavy rainfall on Wednesday triggered multiple landslides and mudslides, leading to the closure of several vital roads and highways across the division.

Jammu-Srinagar National Highway remains closed for the second consecutive day due to landslides and land subsidence at Thard in Udhampur, with additional blockages reported at Chanderkote, Kela Morh, and Battery Cheshma in Ramban.

The traffic on Jammu-Pathankot Highway also remained disturbed due to being blocked near Vijaypur in Samba district following the damage of a pillar of the Devak River bridge.

The Bani-Basohli road (blocked at Sukha Nallah), Basohli-Mabanru road (at Dhani), Mahappur-Kathua road (at Peddy Nallah), and Qiala Chak-Ramkote road (near Kali Mata Mandir in Galak) remain closed. The Mughal Road and Jammu-Kishtwar National Highway are also shut due to landslides and shooting stones.

A massive landslide has also blocked the Doda–Pul Doda road on the Batote–Kishtwar stretch following continuous rainfall in the district, and authorities have advised people to avoid travel in the affected area until clearance work is completed.
