Srinagar July 19: Governor Satya Pal Malik Friday asked hoteliers and houseboat owners to install Sewerage Treatment Plants (STPs) otherwise their licences would be cancelled.
Prepare for the greatest experience after eating a nutritious breakfast.
You will travel over some of the highest passes in the world on your adventure, and you will be greeted by ever-changing vistas of the desolate landscape.
Stop at the café on Khardung-La Pass, the highest all-season motorable road in the world, and take in the scenery; you'll feel as though you're on top of the world.
Upon leaving Khardung-la, the terrain changes to a white sand desert as you approach the Nubra Valley, which is home to the Nubra Sand Dunes.
Visit the Diskit Monastery, the oldest and biggest monastery in Ladakh, which also contains a sizable Buddha statue, if time permits.
Malik said that untreated sewage coming from hotels and houseboats was directly flowing into Dal Lake.
“See the condition of Dal Lake. We are going to cancel licences of those who fail to install STPs. We will restore its lost glory within 18 months,” the Governor said.
Malik was addressing people at the launch of electric buses and releasing of coffee table book on livestock breeding policy, at SKICC.
