Jammu and Kashmir receives most tourists in 75 years
India's Jammu and Kashmir has received 16.2 million tourists this year, the most since British colonial rule ended in 1947, which Prime Minister Narendra Modi's government said was a sign of economic development in the strife-torn region. Goyal did not say what the previous annual high was. Though he did not specify, the vast majority of visitors in Kashmir are domestic tourists. Kashmir, nevertheless, is still seeing occassional violence. The chief of Kashmir's prison service was murdered this weekas the interior minister visited the region. Source: BusinessToday #India
