In Indian illegally occupied Jammu and Kashmir, traffic on Jammu-Srinagar highway was suspended on Monday following an incident of stone-shooting from a hillock overlooking the strategic road in Ramban district. The road was blocked at Chamalwas, five km ahead of Banihal town, the officials said.
The restoration work on the highway, the only all-weather road linking Kashmir with the rest of the world, has not started yet, they said, adding the road clearance agency has moved its men and machinery to clear the debris.—KMS
