Reports from Ramban indicate that NH authorities intensified efforts this morning to restore traffic on the Jammu-Srinagar National Highway due to improved weather conditions. With the 270-km highway, the sole all-weather link connecting Kashmir with the rest of the country, remaining closed for a second consecutive day, the police relocated a significant number of stranded individuals, including over 200 tourists, to safer locations in the Ramban district.
