As Kashmir Valley grapples with heavy snowfall and subsequent road closures, Indian authorities face mounting criticism for their failure in addressing the grievances of locals as well as travelers in occupied Jammu and Kashmir. According to Kashmir Media Service, despite repeated warnings from meteorological agencies, the recent snowfall has led to the closure of vital road links, including the Zojila Pass connecting Kashmir and Ladakh, causing significant disruptions to winter travel.
