Srinagar, Nov 14 (Ajit Weekly News) The Jammu-Srinagar National Highway has been closed for vehicular traffic due to shooting stones and landslides at several places, officials said on Monday.
“Jammu-Srinagar NHW blocked at many places between Chanderkot and Banihal due to shooting stones and mudslides. Traffic will be allowed after clearance of road,” the Jammu and Kashmir Traffic police said.
The highway is the lifeline of Kashmir and the main road link connecting the landlocked valley with the rest of the country.
