A massive landslide hit the Jammu-Srinagar National Highway in the Ramban district in the wee hours of Saturday, leading to suspension of traffic on the only road linking Kashmir with rest of the country, officials said.
The landslide, triggered by incessant rains over the past two days, occurred near Battery Cheshma, completely blocking the 270-km arterial road, Suresh Sharma, DSP (traffic), national highway Ramban, told PTI.
The traffic on the highway plies from the twin capitals of Srinagar and Jammu alternatively due the ongoing work on the four-laning project.
