“He encouraged people from around the world to visit Kashmir and experience its beauty and culture firsthand. He also invited the diplomats to visit Kashmir with their families as a first step to inspire confidence among tourists from the United States and other parts of the world,” the NC said.
Several countries have travel advisories in place, asking their citizens to not visit Jammu and Kashmir.
