Sharing their views with Early Times, the pony owners and sledge owners President said that he has submitted a list of 80 people who have got their own snowmobile and ATV bikes and want to operate the same at Gulmarg. He said that while these people are not being allowed to operate, the influential are carrying out the operation of snowmobiles and ATV for years now.
“We all belong to Gulmarg and the government was duty bound to allow us all to operate the snowmobiles and ATV vehicles at the health resort. During 2012-14 there was a scheme under which the pony owners and sledge owners were to be provided with the snowmobiles and ATV vehicles,” said the President of the union.
The President of the union said that no such scheme was approved due to the 2014 flood, abrogation of Article 370 and COVID-19.
