Heavy downpours in the Kashmir plains and snowfall in the upper reaches led to the closure of the Srinagar-Jammu highway, officials said.
According to Kashmir Media Service, traffic officials said the highway was blocked at many places in Ramban district of occupied Jammu and Kashmir due to mudslides, landslides and shooting stones.
People are advised to avoid a journey on the highway till the weather improves and the road is clear, an official statement of the traffic department said.—KMS
