Heavy Rains Cause Flash Floods, Amarnath Yatra Suspension, and Highway Closure in J&KPreviousNext

Heavy rains near the Holy Amarnath Cave in Jammu and Kashmir triggered low-intensity flash floods, causing a rapid rise in water levels and prompting the suspension of the Amarnath Yatra and closure of the Jammu-Srinagar National Highway. Officials confirmed the situation stabilized with floodwaters receding and reported no loss of life or property. Authorities continue to monitor weather conditions amid warnings of persistent heavy rainfall and have urged caution and avoidance of vulnerable areas until conditions improve.
