Vehicular traffic on the historic Mughal road in Poonch district of Jammu and Kashmir was suspended on Tuesday after it was hit by a massive landslide, officials said.
The road, which connects Poonch and Rajouri districts in Jammu region with south Kashmir’s Shopian, is an alternative road to the Jammu-Srinagar Highway.
The Mughal road was blocked due to landslide triggered by heavy rains in Poshana area, thereby bringing the traffic to halt, they said.
