The project marks a major step towards strengthening adventure tourism and positioning Gulmarg prominently on the global winter sports map.
Later in the day, the Chief Minister also inaugurated the rotating conference hall at Affarwat, Gulmarg, a unique and modern facility designed to host conferences, official meetings, and tourism-related events while offering panoramic views of the surrounding snow-clad peaks.
