Ganderbal, July 24: In the wake of the recent loss of precious lives due to drowning incidents at Fish Pond in Sonamarg, the Sonamarg Development Authority (SDA) has taken swift action to ensure public safety. In a precautionary move, SDA has imposed a complete ban on swimming and bathing in the picturesque Fish Pond.
Last month, a series of unfortunate drowning incidents occurred at the Fish Pond, raising concerns over the safety of visitors indulging in swimming and bathing activities. In response to these incidents, the authorities have made the difficult decision to prohibit any form of water activities within the pond area.
As a popular tourist destination, Sonamarg attracts visitors from all over the world, drawn to its stunning landscapes and natural beauty. The Fish Point park, which had been temporarily closed down by SDA after the back-to-back drowning cases, has now been reopened for tourists. However, strict measures have been put in place to ensure the safety of visitors.
To enforce the ban effectively, SDA has deployed tourist police around the Fish Pond and prominently displayed warning signs across the park area. The authorities aim to create awareness among tourists about the dangers associated with swimming and bathing in the pond.
While the decision may be met with disappointment by some travelers who seek recreational water activities, the priority remains on safeguarding lives and preventing any further tragedies. Sonamarg Development Authority urges all visitors to respect the ban and exercise caution while enjoying the scenic beauty of Fish Pond and its surroundings.
Tourists planning to visit Sonamarg are advised to adhere to the guidelines set by the authorities and cooperate with the designated personnel to ensure a safe and enjoyable experience. The SDA is actively working to explore additional safety measures to prevent any future mishaps and ensure the protection of both locals and tourists alike.
