Water Bodies Freezed In Kashmir
Local ducks are seen on the frozen wetland area amid Chilla Kalan in Sopore, Jammu and Kashmir, India, on December 27, 2024. Chilla Kalan, the 40-day period of intense winter, is a defining feature of Jammu and Kashmir, bringing freezing temperatures, heavy snowfall, and a range of challenges for both residents and visitors. This harsh phase, which usually starts on December 21, is marked by bitter cold and poses serious risks to health and infrastructure. (Photo by Nasir Kachroo/NurPhoto)
