A month after the deadly terror attack on April 22 that killed 26 people in Pahalgam, the region’s tourism industry is facing a major crisis. In response to ongoing security threats, authorities have shut down 48 of the 87 tourist spots in the area. The move has drastically reduced tourist footfall, dealing a blow to local businesses dependent on the sector. Despite enhanced security and promotional efforts by tourism bodies, fear and uncertainty persist. Pahalgam, once bustling with visitors, now stands eerily silent, struggling to recover from the shock and economic fallout. (PC: AP)
