JAMMU: In a bid to boost tourism, Jammu and Kashmir government has established three Tourism Development Authorities (TDAs) in Ladakh region of the state.
Replying to the question in the state assembly, Deputy Chief Minister Muzaffar Hussain Baig on Tuesday said that the state government has set up three TDAs for Leh, Kargil and Zanskar areas of Ladakh to give fillip to the tourism industry in the cold desert.
The authorities will develop tourist infrastructure in potential areas which are accessible for domestic and foreign tourists visiting the region, he said.
However, the department has no proposal to undertake development works in restricted areas, close to Sino-India border, at present which could be thrown open some time later during the year, he added.
