In Indian illegally occupied Jammu and Kashmir, the Srinagar-Jammu highway was again closed, today, for vehicular traffic due to shooting stones in Banihal area of Ramban district in Jammu region.

The Srinagar-Jammu highway, the only surface link connecting the Kashmir Valley with the rest of the world, was opened briefly a day ago.

Earlier, the highway had remained closed for two days in a row due to shooting stones and mudslides triggered by rain at several places between Chanderkot and Banihal before opening briefly on Tuesday.

Meanwhile, the closure of the Srinagar-Jammu highway has led to shortage of mutton in the Kashmir Valley. In Srinagar, non-availability of mutton was reported from several areas.

Stakeholders associated with the mutton trade attributed the shortage of mutton in markets due to the highway shutdown.

General Secretary of Kashmir Mutton Dealers Association Meraaj-ud-Din said that more than 80 trucks of sheep were stranded on the highway.—KMS
