JAMMU: The Jammu-Srinagar highway is blocked by landslides. Friday witnessed numerous landslides and mudslides caused by rain that closed the crucial Jammu-Srinagar national route.

According to representatives of the traffic department, many landslides and mudslides caused the Srinagar-Jammu highway to be temporarily closed to traffic on Friday.

If there are no more landslides until then, the route should be open for traffic in a few hours, according to officials from the traffic department.

In addition to providing the landlocked Valley with essential goods, the Amarnath Yatris use this highway to go to both the base camps in north and south Kashmir.

According to the officials, the road clearance agencies have to work very cautiously to ensure that no damage is done to a bridge providing connectivity to an under-construction railway tunnel.
