The 270-km long Jammu-Srinagar national highway was partially restored on Friday afternoon after being closed for some time earlier in the day due to fresh landslides and shooting stones at Ramban, officials said.
Consequently, 174 Amarnath Yatris, who were held up at Chanderkote in Ramban district this morning, proceeded for Baltal and Pahalgam routes, they added.
“Jammu-Srinagar highway has been partially restored and stranded vehicles are being cleared. Though shooting stones are intermittently on at Panthiyal, we are allowing vehicles with caution to pass the stretch,” said a police officer.
