Following three days of closure due to landslides, the Jammu-Srinagar National Highway has been reopened for one-way traffic today, according to an official spokesperson. To aid stranded passengers, particularly given the recent tourist departures after the Pahalgam attack, a special train service has been initiated from SMVD Katra to New Delhi. The administration emphasizes its commitment to tourist well-being and urges cooperation with guidelines. Chief Minister Omar Abdullah expressed his sadness at the departure of tourists but acknowledged their understandable concerns. He noted efforts to arrange extra flights and the reopening of NH-44 for single-lane traffic on X.
