Ramban: The Srinagar-Jammu National Highway partially resumed for stranded vehicular traffic on Thursday.
The traffic on the Srinagar-Jammu National Highway was suspended on Wednesday due to slippery road conditions after snowfall on both sides of the Banihal-Qazigund tunnel and heavy rains triggering landslides, shooting stones from the hillock overlooking the arterial road passing through Ramban district.
Thursday morning, the highway was opened for stranded traffic after a slight improvement in the weather. Scores of oil, gas tankers, and trucks carrying essential supplies, stranded at Chenani and Ramban, crossed the Jawahar and Banihal-Qazigund tunnels to reach the landlocked Kashmir.
