SRINAGAR: Amid concerns among tourists about the security situation in the Union territories of J&K and Ladakh in the aftermath of the Pahalgam terror strike last month, Ladakh Autonomous Hill Development Council (LAHDC) Leh and the Ladakh UT administration on Saturday said that Ladakh was safe for travel and urged visitors to ignore misinformation circulating in the public domain portraying the region as unsafe.
While meeting a delegation of tour and travel operators of Ladakh UT who raised this issue with LAHDC Leh CEC Tashi Gyalson and DC Leh Santosh Sukhadeve, Gyalson said the region was safe for travel and requested tourists to disregard rumours. Gyalson said LAHDC was committed to promoting tourism and would ensure all necessary support for the security and well-being of visitors.
Responding to the delegation’s request for the early opening of Leh-Manali road, Gyalson said he had informed the Border Roads Organisation to restore the route, and efforts were underway to open it at the earliest.
