The 425 km Srinagar-Leh highway finally open again after clearing ops by the Border Roads Organisation. Shut since December due to snowfall. Early opening required for essential commodities to Ladakh. This is at/near Zojila pass at 11,500 ft altitude. Beautiful & treacherous. 🇮🇳 pic.twitter.com/cLsi1QE8BN
