Jammu: The Mughal Road in Indian illegally occupied Jammu and Kashmir has been shut for vehicular traffic for the fifth straight day due to heavy snowfall in the higher reaches, including the area of Peer Ki Gali.
According to Kashmir Media Service, officials reported that the alternative route linking Jammu’s Poonch with south Kashmir’s Shopian district was closed on December 29 after heavy snowfall. The road has since remained inaccessible with additional snowfall worsening conditions.
Authorities have indicated significant snow accumulation along the 45-kilometer stretch from Dubjan to Peer Ki Gali. Efforts involving both personnel and machinery are underway to clear the snow and restore traffic flow on the affected road.
