GULMARG: In a prompt and well-coordinated rescue operation, J&K Police in Baramulla, in collaboration with Army and Civil Administration, safely rescued 25 tourists from different parts of the country who got stranded at Sunshine Peak, Gulmarg after the helicopter providing shuttle service developed a technical snag.
The tourists had visited Sunshine Peak as part of a joyride when the helicopter, after dropping them at the location, encountered a technical issue and was unable to ferry them back. As soon as the information was received, the district administration immediately activated rescue measures and coordinated efforts with all concerned agencies.
Acting swiftly a police rescue team was immediately deputed towards Gulmarg Phase-II and kept prepared to undertake a foot rescue operation in case aerial evacuation was not possible.
