Zojila Tunnel Breakthrough: India Nears All-Weather Kashmir-Ladakh Connectivity

Описание: India has achieved a major engineering milestone with the breakthrough of the 13-kilometre-long Zojila Tunnel, a project that promises to transform connectivity between Kashmir and Ladakh.

Once completed, the tunnel is expected to become the world's longest bi-directional road tunnel at such a high altitude, providing year-round access through one of the most challenging terrains in the Himalayas.

For decades, the Zojila Pass remained vulnerable to heavy snowfall, avalanches, and extreme weather, often cutting off Ladakh from the rest of India for months. The tunnel is designed to eliminate these disruptions, improve civilian mobility, boost tourism and trade, and strengthen strategic military logistics in the border region.

The breakthrough marks a significant step forward, but questions remain about the project's long-term impact on the environment, local communities, and the Himalayan ecosystem.

Watch this report for the full story behind one of India's most ambitious infrastructure projects.
