Z-Morh tunnel inauguration: CM’s Advisor says Sonamarg set to become best ski-destination

Srinagar: Ahead of the inauguration of the much-awaited Z-Morh tunnel, Nasir Aslam Wani, Advisor to Chief Minister on Monday said that Sonamarg can emerge as the best ski-destination.

Talking to the reporters, Wani as per the news agency—Kashmir News Observer (KNO) said that the local people from Sonamarg were dreaming about this tunnel for a long time and the tourism players too were waiting for this project.

“With this inauguration, Sonamarg will become the all-season tourist destination,” he said, adding that the slopes here are best and has the potential to become the best ski-resort.

He added that the tunnel will increase the connectivity and boost the economy of the locals here as well.

“There is a need to organize sports activities here. We will bring the ski-consultants to the place as the area has the natural slopes similar to the ones being found in Europe. I am hopeful that the facilities will be increased and Sonamarg will become the best ski-destination,” he said.
