Prosecute those behind exodus of Hindus from Kashmir Valley: BJP
Senior BJP leader Devender Singh Rana on Sunday called for an in-depth probe to identify, expose, prosecute those responsible for the irreparable catastrophe leading to their exodus.
Only one-way traffic was allowed on the Jammu-Srinagar national highway on Saturday because of bad condition of the road.
"Traffic will move from Srinagar to Jammu but no vehicle will be allowed in the opposite direction," a traffic department official said here.
"These restrictions will also apply to army convoys and paramilitary forces."

Due to multiple landslides and snowfall, the strategic highway has remained close off and on during this winter causing inconvenience to travellers.
Closures of the only road link that is used for carrying supplies to the landlocked Kashmir Valley often results in skyrocketing prices of essential commodities.
Air travel also became exceptionally costly between the valley and the rest of the country during periods the highway remained closed.
