Mountain
tourism
Kamala
Joshi is a concerned woman. Fifteen years ago, she was the first to venture onto
the heights of Rohtang. She was the first to set up a teashop at this (Rohtang
pass) great tourist haunt that connects the green Manali valley with the higher
reaches of the Zanskar. But the winds of change have been overriding at the
mountain passage. With an instant boom in tourism in the last 10 years, today
her problems have increased manifold. |
