Thick snow blankets the surrounding mountains and roadway, highlighting the extreme weather conditions under which the revelry took place. The video was shared on X user Nikhil Saini, who criticised the tours’ conduct. “Now it is crystal clear why foreign tours avoid famous places in India and move to quiet side areas.
