Kashmir in Deep Freeze: Mir Farid Reports on Intense Cold Wave and New Year Snow Forecast

In this Special Report, India Today's Mir Farid reports from the banks of Dal Lake in Srinagar, where the Kashmir Valley is in the grip of intense cold. While recent snowfall in the mountains brought temporary relief, the clearing weather has led to plummeting temperatures, with the mercury settling around zero. Farid notes that 'between 31st and 1st of January Fresh snowfall is predicted,' offering good news for tourists visiting for New Year holidays. However, the cold wave is set to intensify, with the potential for Dal Lake to freeze over and dense fog to impact transport in the plains of North India.
