TERMS OF REFERENCE FOR
PREPARATION OF DPR FOR AVALANCHE CONTROL
STRUCTURES ON MUGHAL ROAD IN JAMMU AND KASHMIR
1. Background and Importance:The Jammu and Kashmir divisions of J&K state are separated by Pir Panjal Ranges and are
presently connected by the circuitous Jammu-Srinagar National Highway No.1A (NH-1A).In
order to provide a direct link between the districts of Poonch and Rajouri in Jammu Division with
Kashmir valley, a pressing need was felt to construct a road in the missing link between Bafliaz
(Poonch district, Jammu)and Shopian district (Kashmir).The road is under execution from March
2006.
The ancient route Mughal Road, when developed, will help in overall development of
the area and mitigate the hardships of People of Poonch & Rajouri.
It will considerably reduce the travel distances between Poonch and Rajouri Districts
with Srinagar. As against distances of 540Kms and 455Kms between Poonch & Rajouri
District respectively with Srinagar via Jammu and NHIA, the distance along Mughal road
between Srinagar with Poonch and Rajouri Districts shall be only 175Kms and 200Kms
respectively.
The Historical background of the proposed road and the beautiful meadows at Pir Panjal
is expected to attract a large number of tourists, thereby boosting economy of the people.
Besides the road will benefit the pilgrims from Kashmir Valley who visit the famous shrine of
Baba Gulam Shah Badshah at Rajouri.
The National Highway between Jammu & Srinagar (NH-1A) is under tremendous
pressure with the increase in traffic. The road passes through steep mountainous terrain which
are prone to landslides, rock falls and geological failures. As a result the road remains closedfor days together not only in winter, but also in summer during rainy season. The two-lane
road between Bafliaz and Shopian, cutting across the Pir-Panjal mountains, will provide
substantial traffic relief to NH-1A by diverting traffic of Rajouri and Ponch districts to this
new road heading for valley and hence shall serve as an alternate seasonal road (April-
November) connecting Kashmir valley with rest of the country.

The proposed road will promote economic, industrial, social and cultural development
of the project influence area. It will help in raising living standards of the people,
advancement of the community, improvement in medical, educational, post & telegraph and
recreational facility. Employment potential in the area will be generated to a large extent.
The proposed road will give a boost to the agricultural, industrial, building and
commercial activities in the project influence area, which will create opportunities for
economic uplift of the people. With the opening of this area to communications, the land value
will go up. Farmers will get motorable access to the markets for selling their produce and this
will give impetus to the agricultural production in this area.
With the adoption of higher standards of proposed road, there will be reduction in the
vehicle operating costs, fuel consumption, wear& tear of tyres, saving in time of passengers
and vehicles and faster mobility of essential services. The fatigue and discomfort during travel
will also be considerably reduced.
