Following fresh snowfall and landslides at some places, the Srinagar-Jammu highway remained closed for the second consecutive day on Tuesday.
An official of the border roads organization (BRO- which maintains the over 300-km long highway,) told a national wire agency that fresh snowfall occurred during Monday night in the Bannihal sector, while landslides hit the road at Panthal, Seri and Kela Morh areas.
“One of our boys was injured during the road clearance operations in Panthal area yesterday (Monday),” the official said.
“The operation has started again. If the weather permits, stranded vehicles would be allowed to move from Jammu to Srinagar.”
