Jammu-Srinagar national highway closed following landslides

There was no vehicle stranded along the road at present as a few Doda and Kishtwar bound vehicles which got trapped in snowfall at Patnitop in the morning were later cleared towards their respective destinations, said Superintendent of Police (National Highway) Sanjay Kumar Bhagat.

However, sources said, nearly 2,000 Kashmir bound trucks and other load carriers were stopped by police at Udhampur in Jammu. Apart from these vehicles, a number of Kashmir bound passengers were also stranded at Jammu as no vehicles were allowed to move from Jammu to Kashmir Valley and vice versa.
