Daily Life In Kashmir

Kashmiri kids play on the dried-up Wular Lake bed amid the climate crisis in Sopore, Jammu and Kashmir, India, on January 10, 2026. Local boys play cricket on the parched Wular Lake, a stark reminder of the climate change impact on the region. The lake, usually submerged, dries up due to a lack of snowfall and rainfall, affecting the livelihoods of thousands who depend on it for fishing and water chestnuts.
