Srinagar: The Srinagar-Jammu highway, the only surface link connecting Kashmir Valley with rest of the world, remained closed on Thursday for the fourth consecutive day following fresh snowfall in Banihal, an official said.
He said snow following a massive avalanche that hit the Jawahar Tunnel has been removed and both tubes made functional but not fresh traffic can be allowed on the highway as the road has turned slippery.
“The decision has been taken keeping safety of travellers in mind. A big landslide had also hit the highway in Anokhi Fall area of Ramban district due to incessant rain,” the official said.
However, he said that with the improvement in weather and depending on the condition of the road, stranded traffic might be allowed.
Thousands of trucks and passenger vehicles are stranded in the highway while hundreds of Kashmir-bound passengers are struck at Jammu bus stand. They have alleged that there was no intervention from administration, leaving them at the mercy of God.
