Jammu og Kashmirs sjefminister Omar Abdullah har bedt om produksjon av kunstig snø i Gulmarg for å beskytte vintersport og styrke turismen. Han kom med uttalelsen under lanseringen av Khelo India Winter Games 2026. Tiltaket skal posisjonere Gulmarg som en global skidestinasjon.

Den 23. februar 2026 tok Jammu og Kashmirs sjefminister Omar Abdullah opp behovet for kunstig snø i Gulmarg, en populær skisted i regionen. Under åpningen av Khelo India Winter Games 2026 understreket Abdullah hastverket med dette tiltaket for å opprettholde vintersport midt i endrede klimatiske forhold. Gulmarg, kjent for sin naturlige snødekke, står overfor utfordringer som truer dens appell som vintersporthovedstad. Abdullah fremhevet hvordan kunstig snø kan sikre disse aktivitetene og styrke turismen, som er vital for lokaløkonomien. Khelo India-initiativet, et nasjonalt program for å fremme idrett, lanserte sin vinterutgave i området og trakk oppmerksomhet til infrastrukturforbedringer. Sjefministerens uttalelse understreker arbeidet for å gjøre Gulmarg til en konkurransedyktig global destinasjon for ski og relaterte arrangementer. Nøkkelord knyttet til talen inkluderer kunstig snø, bærekraft i vintersportturisme og lanseringen av spillene. Ingen spesifikke tidsfrister for implementering ble nevnt i rapportene.
