Awami Ittehad Party Protests In Srinagar Over Apple Trucks Stranded On Srinagar-Jammu National Highway
An Indian policeman detains Khurshid Ahmad Sheikh, a member of the Jammu and Kashmir Legislative Assembly and Awami Ittehad Party (AIP), during a protest against the government's failure to ensure the smooth movement of apple trucks, following the three-week closure of the Srinagar-Jammu National Highway due to landslides, in Srinagar, Jammu and Kashmir, on September 16, 2025. Apple growers in Kashmir face heavy losses as recent floods from continuous rainfall damage many orchards during the peak harvest season. The problem worsens with the closure of the Srinagar-Jammu National Highway, which stalls fruit-laden trucks. The combined losses to the apple industry, a major part of the region's economy, are estimated at around Rupees 700 crore. (Photo by Firdous Nazir/NurPhoto)
