Srinagar, Aug 29: Jawahar tunnel, the main surface link between the Kashmir valley and rest of the world on the Srinagar-Jammu highway will remain open round the clock from Monday. The decision to the effect has been taken following directions from the chief minister, Omar Abdullah, to ensure free movement of vehicular traffic on the highway and to avoid inconvenience to the public, an official handout said today.
“The Jawahar tunnel, which hitherto remained closed for night hours causing acute inconvenience to the commuters shall now remain open for 24 hours from August 31, 2009 evening,” the handout said, adding the modalities had been worked out in a joint group of Traffic Police, BEACON authorities, CRPF, Army and civil administration yesterday.
