J&K: Banihal-Qazigund Tunnel likely to be operational in coming days

The prestigious tunnel Banihal-Qazigund Tunnel connecting along the 270 kilometres long Jammu-Srinagar national highway will be likely to operate in the coming days. In June 2011, work on the 8.5-kilometre-long tunnel was started. Once the tunnel is opened for the public, the distance between Banihal in Jammu and Qazigund in the southern part of Kashmir will reduce by 16 kilometres. According to a PTI report, it will bypass Jawahar Tunnel. Watch the video to know more about the story.
