Kashmir Valley remains cut off due to heavy snowfall

Poonch, Feb 04 (ANI): Heavy snowfall continued for the fourth consecutive day in Poonch district of Jammu and Kashmir on Wednesday (February 04), throwing normal life out of gear. The Srinagar-Jammu highway remained shut as a result hundreds of trucks carrying essential commodities could not reach the godowns and markets. Srinagar-Jammu highway is an arterial road that connects Kashmir to the rest of the country making it a route of extreme importance- both for the state's economy and defence personnel. Another important link, Mughal Road, which connects Poonch and Rajouri districts with Shopian in the valley, was also shut down due to thick snow. People living in remote villages have been cut off from the rest of the state leading to depleting ration supplies and inaccessibility to essential services. Feb 4, 2015
