Scores of tourists are stranded in Margallah area of upper Neelum Valley in Azad Jammu and Kashmir (AJK) as landslides resulting from persistent rains have led to hours long traffic jams in the valley, reported 24NewsHD TV channel on Saturday.  

Those stranded also include children and women, while rains have also increased chill in the air, increasing problems for the tourists.   

Meanwhile, the Met Office has predicted partly cloudy weather and thundershowers accompanied by strong winds for the AJK, Murree, Galyat and suburbs. 

It has predicted hot and dry weather for much of the rest of the country, including Islamabad. 

However, there are chances of dust raising winds blowing in the federal capital later in the afternoon, it has forecast.
