Shillong, March 2: Multiple landslides triggered by incessant rains blocked the strategic Srinagar-Jammu national highway on Saturday.

Officials said that multiple landslides triggered by incessant rains between Banihal and Ramban sectors have blocked the Srinagar-Jammu highway.

“No traffic will be allowed on the highway on Saturday. Landslide clearance operation will start once the rain stops in the area,” officials said.

He said that due to bad patches in some places, only one-way traffic was allowed on this highway for the last one week.
