The Ramban administration on Wednesday advised commuters plying on the Jammu-Srinagar national highway to follow a traffic advisory after shooting stones blocked both sides of the road.
“A major slide has occurred near Rampadi, Banihal, on National Highway-44. People are advised to follow the @Traffic_hqrs advisory,” Ramban Deputy Commissioner Mussarat Zia tweeted.
Big boulders of stones were seen stranded on the midway, hampering traffic.
However, efforts are underway to remove the boulders.
Earlier on Monday, the highway was blocked due to heavy rains and shooting stones at Panthyal in the Ramban district.
