Traffic on the three major roads linking Jammu with Kashmir valley remained suspended on Sunday owing to bad weather and repair works. The Jammu-Srinagar National Highway (NH-44), the Kishtwar-Anantnag NH-243 and the Mughal Road were shut due to which commuters had to reschedule their travel.
While the NH-44 remained closed due to some repair work in Ramban, the NH-244 in Kishtwar and the Mughal Road were shut due to snowfall on higher reaches.
An official of the Kishtwar administration said, “In view of fresh heavy snowfall at Sinthan Pass, traffic movement on the Kishtwar-Anantnag highway via Sinthan Pass (NH-244) has been temporarily suspended.”
