Dry Winter Season In Kashmir
A person is walking beside the frozen patch in Gulmarg Ski destination on a dry winter day in the Baramulla district of Indian Administered Kashmir, on January 23, 2024. The valley, known for its snow-clad scenery, is experiencing an unexpected absence of snowfall this year. This climatic shift has affected the tourism sector and could be detrimental to the health of the region's glaciers and water bodies. The lack of snow this season has caused thousands of tourists to turn away from the Kashmir valley, either canceling their bookings or deferring them for the coming months.
