Traffic on Motorway suspended after amethanol-loaded truck overturned near KallarKahar on Thursday. Following the safety protocols, the Motorway police suspended the traffic, cordoned off the accident site, and called in fire-brigade and ambulances to deal with any eventuality.

No injury was reported in the accident.

A Motorway police spokesman said that the work has been launched to clean the road.
