Bhimber Gali Tunnel to Boost Jammu-Poonch Connectivity

10 Mar 2025 CW Team

The Bhimber Gali Tunnel project in Jammu and Kashmir marked a key milestone with its inaugural blast, signaling a major step forward in regional infrastructure development. Part of the 16.1 km Jammu-Poonch National Highway project, the tunnel will reduce the distance between Kalali in Rajouri and Bhataduria in Poonch by 10.8 km, significantly easing travel across the difficult terrain.

Executed by the Border Roads Organisation (BRO) under Project Sampark, the blast was conducted by Brig Neeraj Madan and A M Prasad, following a ceremonial 'puja'. The project reflects coordinated efforts between BRO and various civil departments to improve regional connectivity and strengthen strategic access for both civilian and military purposes.

Once completed, the Bhimber Gali Tunnel is expected to drive economic growth and enhance national security in the Pir Panjal region, showcasing the BRO’s commitment to building resilient road networks in remote areas of Jammu and Kashmir.
