The Srinagar-Leh highway was closed due to rain and snowfall in Indian illegally occupied Jammu and Kashmir.
According to Kashmir Medias Service, incessant rain was recorded in the plains on the second day and light snowfall was seen in mountainous areas due to which the Srinagar-Leh highway was closed.
Traffic also remained suspended on the Mughal Road for the second consecutive day, today. “The Srinagar-Sonamarg-Gumri road and Mughal road in south Kashmir were closed on Saturday due to fresh rain and snowfall,” an official of traffic police said.
He said the 270-km Srinagar-Jammu highway, which connects Kashmir Valley with the outside world, was open. “There were some minor issues but the traffic is plying so far,” the official said.—KMS
