The Atal Rohtang tunnel which is named after Prime Minister Atal Bihari Vajpayee has opened for the Manali-Leh highway for many months now. It almost took 10 years to complete the longest high altitude road tunnel and it has now been completed. Now the new images of the tunnel have flooded social media and they look extraordinary.

The tunnel has become a major tourist attraction for many people and many incidents involving miscreants have been reported recently.
