Chitral-Peshawar road is closed for all kinds of vehicular traffic as flash floods triggered by torrential rain swept away five kilometer portion of the road on the Chitral side of Lowari Pass, sources said.
Hundreds of passengers coming to Chitral experienced great difficulty as they had to travel on feet in the flooded area. Sources said that the road may be cleared of debris in a few days.
