An order issued today said that no picnickers would be allowed to Sonamarg on weekends during the month of July.
However, only such persons and tourists shall be allowed to proceed towards Sonamarg who possess a proof of confirmed booking in the hotels. No day picnickers shall be allowed to visit Sonamarg on weekends. The order has been issued in view of a large number of local tourists thronging to Sonamarg tourist destination especially on weekends which poses danger of resurgence of COVID-19 pandemic in view of possible violation of COVID appropriate behavior.

Besides, SDPO Kangan and Deputy SP Traffic Ganderbal shall establish nakas at Kangan, Gund and Gagangeer so as to allow only Kargil traffic and bonafide people with proof of advance hotel booking to move towards Sonamarg.
