Zoji La, which connects Leh to Srinagar, was opened for civil and military movement in only 110 days after the BRO cleared the heavy snow. Earlier it took 150 days to clear the crucial link. The strategic pass was thrown open within a relatively shorter period as it took an average of 150 days in the previous years. The Border Roads Organisation (BRO) cleared the snow to ensure the crucial link opens ahead of time. Located at a height of 11,650 feet, Zoji La is a strategic pass that is a vital link between the Kashmir Valley and Ladakh and is critical for the operational preparedness of the armed forces.More Related News
