#ClimateChange is taking toll on #ski resorts all over the World with #Gulmarg, #Kashmir being no different. So far this season Gulmarg is without snow making everyone anxious . pic.twitter.com/Pk1VpnL1wi

Is it actually that bad in Kashmir this year?? Saw a reel from Gulmarg ski resort that there is no snow. Don’t know about snowfall patterns in Kashmir but it really looked shocking to see Gulmarg that warm & bare. 😮

— Siddharth's Echelon (@SiddharthKG7) January 7, 2024

Indian destinations like Gulmarg, Tawang, and Manali are usually covered in snow by now. But today, as of the 7th of Jan 2024, it's just dry and dusty. My friends tell me that it's getting worse with each passing year.

And that is just terrible when it comes to the water levels… pic.twitter.com/GZYIUqhNru
