Early Times Report

Srinagar, Nov 24: The higher reaches of Kashmir valley experienced a fresh snowfall while some plains received rains resulting in closure of several strategic roads on Sunday, officials said.
The historical Mughal road connecting south Kashmir’s Shopian district with the twin districts of Poonch and Rajouri in Jammu division, was closed for vehicular traffic as a precautionary measure following the snowfall on Peer Ki Gali on Sunday, traffic police officials said.
Gurez-Bandipora road was also shut for vehicular traffic due to accumulation of snowfall on the Razdan top and other connected roads of the north Kashmir district. The traffic on Sonamarg-Kargil road has also been suspended due to slippery conditions, they said.
The overnight snowfall covered the ski resort of Gulmarg in north Kashmir Baramulla district in a white blanket, much to the delight of the tourists staying there.
Reports of snowfall were received from Karnah in frontier Kashmir district of Kupwara. Leh in the Union Territory of Ladakh also received the season’s first snowfall on Sunday.
