Rampura Rajpura, also known as “Khudgo Mungloo” locally, was once undiscovered but is now one of north Kashmir’s most beloved picnic spots where nature and people coexist in harmony. Mungloo is blossoming as a tranquil refuge for individuals seeking comfort in nature’s embrace with each passing day.
The settlement, which is located around 30 km from the Baramulla district’s Sopore area, is renowned for its breathtaking surroundings and is tucked between mountains and lush green valleys. The community is growing in popularity as a hub for creative inspiration, a haven for outdoor enthusiasts, and a place to find one’s inner peace.
Ghulam Mohammad, a local of Rampura said there are beautiful natural spots like lush green forests and serene lakes that can attract a lot of tourists in Mungloo.
He said the administration needs to invest in infrastructure like accommodation, restaurants and recreational facilities, which will not only attract tourists but also create job opportunities for the locals.
However, there should be strict regulations in place to regulate tourism activities and prevent any damage to the environment, Mohammad said, adding that there is a dire need to preserve the natural beauty and biodiversity of the area.
Another local Kouser Arafat said, “The installation of the Jio mobile tower has brought immense cheer and relief for us, particularly the students, who were suffering immensely. It had remained untouched by the rapid advancements of technology and is now connected to mobile and the internet which too has added tourist footfall.”
Talking to KNO, Conservator Forests North Kashmir, Irfan Rasool, said that tourist footfall is increasing significantly. “Currently, we are working on ecological aspects of the area which were badly affected by the silt. Soon after this move, we will work for objective development,” he said.
We have established tourism attractions at Mungloo, and with the assistance of the district administration, other development projects are being considered and some are already underway, according to Irfan, who also added that the area will soon become more attractive.
“At this time, Suderkote Bandipora, Watlab, and Ningli in Sopore are our primary focal points. We have begun a survey of the water sports available in the Watlab and Ningli districts, and we are working on it,” he continued.
