The expedition was part of the Winter Carnival 2023. In it’s second phase the festival is being celebrated at Surinder- a picturesque valley in Arin Block with an aim to explore the potential of the area for winter tourism and winter sports.

 Several cultural and musical programmes were also held at Datwas that enthralled the audience .
 
After flagging off the treking group, Deputy Commissioner said the aim of organising the event was to explore the tourism potential of these areas and to do some productive work amid sub zero temperature when everyone loves to stay indoors.
 
 He said the Surinder region has a huge potential and such events will help to further promote the tourism of the area. 
 
Dr Owais said they will promote tourism of this particular area by inviting people from other areas of the country. 
 
He further stated that such events help the youth to spend their leisure time in useful activity so that they stay away from drug addiction.
