Ramban, Mar 04(QNS): The Jammu-Srinagar National Highway (NH-44) has been closed for traffic due to a landslide at Mehad in Ramban district. Authorities have deployed men and machinery to clear the debris, but continuous heavy rainfall is hampering restoration efforts.
Officials have advised commuters to avoid traveling on the highway until the weather improves and the road is fully cleared. The closure of NH-44, the lifeline connecting Kashmir with the rest of the country, is likely to impact the movement of essential supplies and travelers.
Authorities are closely monitoring the situation and working to restore connectivity at the earliest. Travelers are urged to stay updated with official advisories before planning their journey.(QNS)
