PHOTO GALLERY: Year on, India's lockdowns ruin Kashmir's economy.
A deserted house boat is seen parked at Nigeen lake in Srinagar, Indian controlled Kashmir, Monday, July 27,2020. Indian-controlled Kashmir's economy is yet to recover from a colossal loss a year after New Delhi scrapped the disputed region's autonomous status and divided it into two federally governed territories.
“It was not just a political change. It destroyed our livelihood,” said Rashid, 60, who has now turned to growing vegetables to feed his family. Hundreds of the colorful hand-carved houseboats, known as shikaras, lie deserted, mostly anchored still on the desolate lake. Hotels are empty and there are hardly any tourists.
