<span style="color: #222222;">Hundreds of Ladakh and Srinagar bound passengers are stranded at Drass in Kargil and Sonmarg in Srinagar due to the closure of Leh – Srinagar National Highway for the past one week. Due to exorbitant air tickets, Ladakhis are left with no means of travel but opting the riskiest Leh-Srinagar Highway via Zojila roads to reach in or out of Ladakh. Our Leh Correspondent reports that efforts are going to throw the roads open for traffic by this evening.</span><br />
