ZOJILA, KASHMIR, INDIA - APRIL 30: Indian army vehicles cross the snow cleared treacherous Srinagar-Leh highway on April 30, 2016 in Zojila, 108 km (67 miles) east of Srinagar, the summer capital of Indian administered Kashmir, India. The 443 km (275 miles) long Srinagar-Leh highway was opened for vehicles by Indian Border Roads Organisation after remaining snowbound at Zojila Pass for the past five months.
