SRINAGAR: The Mughal Road, connecting Kashmir Valley’s Shopian district with the twin districts of Rajouri and Poonch, reopened after being closed due to fresh snowfall, while the Jammu–Srinagar National Highway remained shut on Sunday, officials said.
The recent snowfall at several locations along the road, including Pir Ki Gali, had led to its temporary closure.
DTI Mughal Road, Mohd Mahroof, confirmed the reopening of the road to GNS.
Meanwhile, the Jammu–Srinagar highway remained closed due to landslides, mudslides, and shooting stones at multiple points along the route, officials said. Traffic in both directions was halted in the early morning hours, and efforts have since been underway to clear the road. (GNS)
