Highway ministry to fund Kela tunnel in Ladakh from ‘strategic road projects’
Saturday, 15 February 2025 The Centre has approved plans to construct a tunnel through Kela Pass in Ladakh and upgrade the Nurbo-Sumdo-Kiato road in Himachal Pradesh for strategic road projects. These projects aim to improve year-round connectivity for civilians and defence forces, with the Border Roads Organisation preparing detailed project reports for the crucial works.
Heavy snowfall and landslides have disrupted traffic across Jammu and Kashmir, leading to the closure of the Srinagar-Jammu and Srinagar-Ladakh highways. Several districts, including Rajouri, Doda, and Anantnag, are covered in thick snow. Authorities have issued an avalanche alert in Himachal’s Lahaul-Spiti region. While daily life is affected, farmers have welcomed the fresh snowfall. Weather conditions are expected to improve by the afternoon.

A series of four earthquakes struck India, Myanmar, and Tajikistan within just one hour on Sunday morning, alarming millions across central and South Asia. The strongest tremor, at magnitude 6.1, hit Tajikistan, while Myanmar experienced a powerful 5.5 aftershock amidst its ongoing quake crisis. India’s Himachal Pradesh saw a 3.4 magnitude quake early in the day. Though no major casualties were reported, the tremors sent residents fleeing and reignited fears about seismic vulnerabilities across the region, especially in areas already coping with infrastructure damage and humanitarian distress.
