India has achieved a major engineering milestone with the final breakthrough of the strategic Zojila Tunnel. Located at an altitude of over 11,500 feet, the 13-kilometre-long project is set to become the world's longest bidirectional single-tube road tunnel. The breakthrough marks a giant step toward providing all-weather connectivity between Kashmir and Ladakh, regions previously cut off for months during winter.
Engineers overcame subzero temperatures and unstable Himalayan geology to reach the final rock wall. The project is expected to significantly boost tourism, trade, and strategic logistics in the sensitive border region, ensuring year-round access to one of India's most remote areas.
