Traffic movement on the Tangmarg–Drung road came to a halt after a massive forest tree fell on the main route, causing disruption for several hours. The incident not only blocked vehicular movement but also damaged an electricity transformer and multiple poles, leaving the area without power.
The road serves as a vital link between Tangmarg and the famous Drung Waterfall, a popular tourist destination. Sources said that police personnel and CRPF men had a narrow escape when the tree came crashing down, narrowly missing their vehicles.
Authorities have launched efforts to restore traffic and repair the damaged power infrastructure. Locals and tourists have appealed for timely clearance and long-term safety measures to prevent such incidents in the future.
