The strategic Jammu-Srinagar National Highway remained closed for the fourth consecutive day on Thursday (Feb 22) following landslides at more than a dozen places in the Ramban district, said the traffic department officials. Over a thousand vehicles were stranded due to the massive landslides at multiple places along the 270-km stretch which connects Kashmir to the rest of the country. The highway has been shut since Monday (Feb 19) and the efforts for the restoration of the road for the smooth movement of traffic are still underway.
