Tourism in India’s popular winter destinations is facing a setback as the country experiences an unusually snowless winter. Ski resorts in the northern regions of Himachal Pradesh and Uttarakhand are devoid of snow, leading to a decline in tourists. Popular hill stations like Shimla and Manali are also suffering from the lack of snow, which is affecting the winter tourism industry. Local businesses that rely on winter tourism are facing financial difficulties. The unseasonal weather has dampened the spirits of both tourists and the industry as a whole. Tour operators and hotel owners are hopeful for a turnaround in the coming weeks, but the current situation is worrisome for the winter tourism sector.
