Patnitop
has heavy snowfall
Patnitop
(J-K): Patnitop, a hill resort of Jammu and Kashmir,
experienced the season's first heavy snowfall on Sunday.
Hundreds of tourists have thronged Patnitop to enjoy snowfall.
People who came to visit the shrine of Shri Mata Vaishno
Devi, located at a distance of 80 kms from Patnitop, also
flocked to experience the first snowfall. "We had come
to Vaishno Devi shrine. This is our celebration with nature.
God has blessed us," said Kamini, a tourist. Many revelers,
left awestruck by the picturesque region, were greatly
fascinated to see the snow for the first time. A number
of them were excited with joy. "I feel very good to see
the snowfall. I am seeing it for the first time. I feel
like I have come to heaven. I really don't know how to
express, I am just speechless," Sima, a tourist from Kolkatam
said. The snowfall in upper reaches and rain in lower
regions has broken the dry spell in the state and has
also led to a dip in temperatures in the neighbouring
states, including the New Delhi.
