The HRTC resumed its bus service on the Keylong-Udaipur-Tindi route in Lahaul today. The service was suspended in January due to heavy snowfall.

The BRO had restored the road a few days ago. Thereafter, the HRTC depot at Keylong conducted successful trials on this route.

Keylong SDM Priya Nagta flagged off a bus from Keylong. The corporation is planning to resume its service on the Keylong-Darcha route by tomorrow.

The HRTC is keen to resume the bus service on the Manali-Keylong route via Atal Tunnel. The route has been restored partially for 4×4 vehicles. Now, efforts are on to widen it for smooth movement of buses.

The BRO is working to restore the Manali-Leh highway by March-end. It has engaged its workforce and machinery from Sarchu and Darcha sides to restore the highway. —
