According to Scoop, the G20 Tourism Working Group meeting from May 22 – 24 in Srinagar came at a critical time when the Valley of Kashmir has been making persistent efforts to bounce back on the map of international tourism as an abode for domestic and international travellers.

The G-20 delegates could see for themselves what Jammu and Kashmir have been through because of the conflict which was primarily being ignited, coordinated and sustained from somewhere else.

In his remarks, J&K's Chief Secretary, Arun Kumar Mehta, highlighted the increasing trend of tourism influx in the region over the past few years, with 1.88 crore tourists visiting Jammu and Kashmir in 2022.

In today’s meeting, the delegates are expected to hold multiple sessions at SKICC. During the day, the delegates will be taken to a few locations including Nishat Garden, Cheshma Shahi, Pari Mahal, Kashmir Arts Emporium and Polo View Market.

For the first time, work is also being done to decorate the bunkers from outside located from Srinagar International Airport to SKICC. Department of Tourism Kashmir has also made many essential arrangements to make this summit a memorable one.
