On Thursday, heavy rainfall in Bandipora district, Jammu and Kashmir, triggered severe waterlogging, particularly affecting the Srinagar-Bandipora road near Darul Uloom Rahimiya. This situation disrupted vehicular movement and caused rainwater and mud to flood residential areas, damaging household belongings and causing distress among local residents. Authorities are currently assessing the extent of the damage and planning restoration measures.

Additionally, traffic on National Highway-44 (NH-44) has been slow due to several factors, including single-lane conditions and breakdowns of heavy motor vehicles between Ramban and Nachlana. Traffic authorities have issued advisories urging commuters to adhere to lane discipline and avoid overtaking to prevent further congestion. Light motor vehicle operators are advised to travel only during daylight hours due to risks associated with night travel, including landslides and shooting stones. The continuous rainfall has significantly impacted normal life in the region, prompting ongoing monitoring and response efforts from local authorities.
