The road was also blocked for about two hours on Tuesday morning. When this correspondent visited the area late in the evening, the passengers were waiting on both sides of the site where an excavator was busy to bring down a huge rock hanging over the road. There was no intimation to the passengers in advance about the closure of the road and no official visited the site. In the evening, however, Assistant Commissioner Mastuj Hamidullah Khan visited the site and inspected the ongoing work. The road was reopened for traffic at about 8:30pm after which the stranded passengers resumed their journeys towards Chitral town and upper Chitral. ]]>
