Kishtwar: Youth Congress Leader Sheikh Nasir Hussain Advocate has appealed the government to explore possibilities to tap all tourist places in Kishtwar. In a press statement issued here Mr. Sheikh Nasir has said that besides having picturesque landscape the area has many famous shrines and ancient sites having historical background, which need to be developed as pilgrim tourism.
Youth Congress leader has alleged that despite having immense tourism potential as well as historical, religious and ecological significance, the mountainous district Kishtwar has been ignored in all spheres especially in tourism sector. He has said that endowed with natural scenic beauty, Kishtwar can provide the visitors a unique opportunity to explore their inherent sporting skills as the area has a wide range of sporting activities.
He has said that Trekking is one of the most favorite sporting activities of the area. One can trek along the snow covered lanes of Kishtwar to the beautiful place of Zanskar. As per Sheikh Nasir for those tourists who do not want to explore their sportsman spirit, they can enjoy the beautiful gift of nature.
Besides developing the tourist places to attract tourists, the YC leader has also demanded that more facilities for the tourists be created, which include construction of buildings of Tourist Reception Centre, guest houses as well as road links. Sheikh Nasir has appealed the government to brought the places like Machail, Kalamsatar, Mughalmaidan, Chingam etc on the tourist map and develop all these sites for tourist attraction. He said thousands of devotees visit every year during Machail Yatra and Urs Shah Farid ud Din and Shah Asrar uddin and Government should create all necessary facilities for the pilgrims.
