Meanwhile, severe cold weather has added to the miseries of residents of Kashmir valley and Jammu region as temperatures have dropped below freezing point upto minus eleven degree celsius in some areas.

According to Kashmir Media Service, temperature has dropped to minus five degree centigrade in Srinagar which has led to freezing of Dal Lake fringes and other water bodies as well as water supply lines.

Occupied Kashmir is currently under the grip of ‘Chillai-Kalan’ which is the 40-day harshest period of winter that began on 21st of last month and usually ends on 31st of January.

Earlier, the European Union (EU) will not be part of the foreign delegates’ team visiting Occupied Kashmir on the Indian government’s invitation.

The two-day tour would be attended by envoys from the Latin America and Africa. Diplomats from Australia and several Gulf nations, who were expected to go, have dropped out due to what they called ‘scheduling’ reasons.

An official of the EU told the media that the EU envoys did not want a guided tour of Occupied Kashmir. “We want to meet people freely of our own choosing.”

The official said that some of the envoys are also keen on meeting the three former chief ministers, Dr Farooq Abdullah, Omar Abdullah and Mehbooba Mufti.
