Traffic remained suspended on Srinagar-Jammu National Highway on Friday due to road repairing works necessitated by the frequent landslides and shooting stones being witnessed along it at many places.
The frequent closure of the road apart from troubling the travellers and inhabitants of the nearby villages, causes immense economic and business loss to the Valley. Due to its bad condition, the road has become notorious for consuming human lives in frequent accidents.
The travellers and the inhabitants of nearby villages complained that the repeated closure of the highway was taking a toll on them.
