Srinagar-Jammu highway closed due to landslide in Ramban

In Indian illegally occupied Jammu and Kashmir, the Srinagar-Jammu highway, the only all-weather road linking Kashmir Valley with the rest of the world, was closed for vehicular traffic due to a land-slide in Ramban district in Jammu region.

Officials said that the highway was blocked by a landslide at Duggi pull near Chanderkote in Ram-ban. As a result, many heavy motor vehicles (HMVs) and light motor vehicles (LMVs) are stranded at different points on the highway, they said.

Meanwhile, one person was killed and another was injured when a truck rolled down into a gorge near Tulbagh at Banihal in Ramban on Wednesday night, the officials said.—KMS
