The NHA deputy director, Javed Saifullah, said, “We have cleared the Mansehra-Naran-Jalkhad Road for all sorts of traffic till Barawai and most probably the entire artery would be reopened to traffic in the first week of June this year between Khyber Pakhtunkhwa.” 

Talking to the media, he claimed that in November 2022, when the Kaghan Valley had significant snowfall, the key highway connecting KP with the adjoining Gilgit-Baltistan was closed to traffic. ?“We have started clearing Mansehra-Naran-Jalkhad Road after the inclement weather spell come to normalcy and now tourists could move freely up to Barawai via Naran the hub of the commercial activities in the valley.” 

Saifullah said that work was progressing well and all main glaciers were cut making the way forward. “We have been expecting that if the weather doesn’t turn inclement, the tourists could visit Babusar Top very shortly.”
