Melting Glaciers: Part 8: The ice that fed Kashmir is fading forever
KU, ISRO satellite study reveals one-third of Valleys glacier cover gone in 40 years Abid Bashir Srinagar, May 13: For centuries, the glaciers perched high above Kashmirs valleys acted like frozen guardians silently storing winter snow and releasing water through rivers and streams that sustained life below. However, a landmark satellite-based study by researchers from the University of Kashmir and Indian Space Research Organisation now paints a troubling pictureKashmirs snow kingdom is facing a slow collapse. Using nearly four decades of satellite imagery from 1980 to 2018, scientists mapped 147 glaciers spread across the Kashmir Himalaya and found that the region lost almost one-third of its glacier area during the period. The glaciers reduced from nearly 102 square kilometres in 1980 to just over 72 square kilometres in 2018 a loss of about 29 square kilometres of ice. The findings, available with the Rising Kashmir, reveal that glacier recession in Kashmir is occurring at a faster rate than in many other Himalayan regions, making the Valley one of the most climate-sensitive mountain ecosystems in South Asia. Nearly 72 per cent of glaciers in Kashmir are smaller than three square kilometres, and scientists found these smaller glaciers are disappearing the fastest. Glaciers under one square kilometre lost more than 41 per cent of their area during the study period, almost three times more than larger glaciers. Researchers identified rising temperatures and declining winter snowfall as the primary drivers behind the glacier retreat. The study notes that annual temperatures across Kashmir have increased significantly over recent decades, while snowfall that replenishes glaciers has steadily declined. Climate projections cited in the research suggest temperatures in the Valley could rise by as much as 6.9 degrees Celsius by the end of the century under high-emission scenarios a change scientists warn could drastically alter the fragile Himalayan ecosystem. The research further found that glaciers located between 4,200 and 4,400 metres in altitude witnessed the highest retreat, losing nearly 55 per cent of their area, while glaciers at higher elevations showed comparatively lower losses. South-facing glaciers, exposed to greater sunlight, melted significantly faster than north-facing glaciers. Likewise, glaciers lying on gentler slopes experienced more rapid recession compared to those on steeper terrain. The iconic Kolahoi Glacier, often described as Kashmirs largest glacier, has become one of the strongest symbols of this transformation unfolding across the Valleys mountains. The glaciers of Kashmir feed rivers such as the Lidder, Sindh, Vishav and Doodhganga, which support irrigation, hydropower generation, tourism and drinking water supplies across the region. Scientists warn that while accelerated melting may temporarily increase river discharge, the long-term depletion of glaciers could severely reduce streamflows in the future. Researchers used decades of satellite observations, including Landsat imagery and digital elevation models, to map glacier boundaries across all 24 sub-basins of the Jhelum basin, making the study one of the most comprehensive glacier assessments conducted in Kashmir. The study ultimately warns that Kashmirs glaciers are no longer just remote ice masses in the mountains. They are rapidly becoming some of the clearest indicators of a changing Himalayan climate and a warning sign for the Valleys environmental and water security future.

Hailstorm inflicts losses worth millions to Kashmirs fruit industry
Growers union seeks compensation, implementation of CIS, MIS Ovaise Gul Srinagar, May 13: The recent hailstorm in several parts of Kashmir, especially northern areas, has wreaked havoc on appleorchards, with fruitgrowersclaiminglosses worth millions of rupees andtermingthe weather calamityasa major blow to the Valleys horticulture sector, affecting thousands of fruit growers. President of the Kashmir Valley Fruit Growers Cum Dealers Union (KVFGCDU), Bashir Ahmad Basheer,said orchards in Tangmarg, Pattan, Wagura, Kreeri, Rafiabad, Baramulla, and Bandipora in north Kashmir, along with the Kangan belt in central Kashmir, suffered heavy losses during the intense storm on the evening of May 12. He said similar hailstorms had damaged orchards in Shopian and Kulgam districts of south Kashmir a few days earlier. In these weather vagaries,the growershave suffered losses worth millions of rupees. The exact figure cannot be gauged due to the severe intensity of the damage, Basheer said, adding that growers have termed the losses irreparable and said the weather calamity has shattered their hopes for the ongoing season. The Chairman said repeatedincidents ofhailstorms and erratic weather have exposed the vulnerability of Kashmirs horticulture sector, which supports lakhs of families across the Valley. The union expressed concern over the non-implementation of the Crop Insurance Scheme and the absence of the Market Intervention Scheme (MIS), despite repeated demands and budgetary provisions announced earlier. The growers body urged the administration, including Lieutenant Governor Manoj Sinha and Chief Minister Omar Abdullah, to immediately implement a crop insurance scheme for the horticulture sector, restore the MIS, and announce a comprehensive compensation package for affected orchard owners. The union also demanded that experts from Sher-e-Kashmir University of Agricultural Sciences and Technology (SKUAST) and officials from the Horticulture Department be directed to conduct an assessment of the losses caused by the recent hailstorms across the Valley.

Will use AI, technology to take anti-drug campaign to next level: SSP Sgr
Handlers, hawala networks, narcotic hotspots being tracked through tech-driven mapping Abid Bashir Srinagar, May 13:Taking the anti-drug war to its next and most decisive phase,Srinagar Police are now deploying Artificial Intelligence and technology-based intelligence mapping to dismantle the entire narcotics ecosystem from street-level peddlers to handlers, hawala operators and financial backers. Speaking exclusively to Rising Kashmir, Senior Superintendent of Police (SSP) Srinagar, Dr GV Sundeep Chakravarthy said the fight against drugs has entered a next levelphase, where technology, financial surveillance and intelligence-based targeting are being usedto identify illegal networks, suspicious transactions and narcotics hotspots across the district. We are not only targeting street-level peddlers now. Our next focus is on handlers, hawala linkages, illegal assets and the larger financial network sustaining this menace. Through AI and technology-driven mapping, suspicious financial transactions, illegal linkages and hotspots are being identified and acted upon, he said. Calling the Nasha Mukt Bharat Abhiyan an Andolan rather than merely a campaign, the SSP said drug abuse is not just a criminal issue but a collective societal battle involving police, parents, teachers, civil society and citizens alike. Our aim is to break the supply chain and hit the narcotic ecosystem financially. Once the money trail is disrupted, the entire network weakens, he said. According to the SSP, Srinagar Police have so far registered 101 NDPS cases and arrested 143 notorious drug peddlers during the ongoing drive. Properties worth nearly Rs 24 crore linked to narcotics proceeds have been attached, while several illegal constructions raised through drug money have also been demolished. He further revealed that authorities are initiating the cancellation of driving licences and Aadhaarcards ofdrug peddlers as part of the intensified crackdown. Ten notorious smugglers have already been taken into preventive custody. Dr Chakravarthy said police are relying heavily on intelligence-based operations and public participation to dismantle the network. People have supported us immensely in the last one month.Identitiesof informants are being kept strictly confidential, and some are also being suitably rewarded, he said. On the role of educational institutions, the SSP said schools, colleges, mohalla committees and private coaching centres have been actively engaged in awareness and prevention programmes.We are counselling students and urging them to pick cricket bats and laptops, not drugs. Prevention is always better than cure, he said. Drawing a clear distinction between traffickers and addicts, the SSP asserted that police do not view addicts as criminals. Drug addicts are patients. Our effort is to protect them, counsel them and rehabilitate them properly so they can rejoin society as normal individuals. Our target is smugglers and peddlers, not addicts, he added. Sending out a stern warning to narcotics networks operating in the city, the SSP said Srinagar Police will continue to act with zero tolerance. We will be ruthless and go very tough against drug peddlers. There will be no space for them in society, he said.
Border villages to become model villages: Sinha
Says power coverage has reached 95% Visits Vibrant Village Trehgam Inaugurates 26 smart classrooms Lays foundation for playground, Shiv Temple restoration Aatif Qayoom Kupwara, May 13: Lieutenant Governor Manoj Sinha on Wednesday said the government is working to transform border villages of Kupwara into model villages by improving roads, electricity, schools, connectivity and employment opportunities for local youth. The LG made these remarks while visiting Vibrant Village Trehgam in Kupwara district, where he inaugurated several projects, laid foundation stones for new works and interacted with residents to understand their concerns and developmental needs. Addressing a public gathering, Sinha said the Government of India (GoI) under the leadership of Prime Minister Narendra Modi, is fully committed to the overall development of border villages in J&K. He said every village deserves all-weather roads, modern schools and better opportunities for youth, adding that this vision is driving the transformation of Kupwaras border villages after 2019. The administration is working to ensure that children living in remote villages receive the same quality education available in urban areas of J&K, the LG said. He called for strengthening agriculture by ensuring better seeds, reliable irrigation facilities and proper market linkages for farmers. Highlighting the growing self-employment sector in Trehgam, Sinha said 205 self-help groups and 85 Mission Youth units are already operational in the area. These initiatives, he said, are helping local youth and women become financially independent. Referring to the revival of the historic Sharda Temple in Teetwal, the Lieutenant Governor said the development has given a major boost to tourism in Kupwara district. He said tourist arrivals have increased from only 6,900 in 2018-19 to nearly 3.77 lakh in 2024-25, and expressed confidence that every border village in the district will soon witness economic growth and prosperity. Sinha recalled his visit to Machil in October 2020 and said the Keran and Machil areas were connected with grid power after decades of waiting. At that time, only around 70 per cent of households in border villages had reliable electricity, but in the last four years the coverage has increased to nearly 95 per cent, he said. He further said telecom connectivity in border villages has now reached 88 per cent and directed officials to ensure complete coverage before the end of this year. According to him, every family living in border areas is serving the nation and deserves better living conditions and infrastructure. The LG said all-weather roads have already been provided to 15 out of 16 Vibrant Villages through PMGSY and PWD projects. He added that funding for the remaining village has been approved by the central government and work will begin shortly. Speaking about Vibrant Village Phase 2, the Lieutenant Governor said the programme focuses on three major areas, including livelihood generation, physical and digital connectivity and complete implementation of government welfare schemes. He said new cooperative societies, self-help groups, tourism circuits and cottage industries will be promoted to strengthen the rural economy, especially for women and youth. Sinha said the administration is adopting a whole-of-government approach to connect villages like Trehgam with the national mainstream. He said that CSR funds are being used for the construction of stadiums and playgrounds in remote areas to create better sports infrastructure for youth. The Lieutenant Governor reiterated that the Government of India remains committed to the rehabilitation of terror victim families and people affected by floods. During the visit, Sinha inaugurated 26 smart classrooms in six vibrant blocks under the Aspirational District Programme. He laid foundation stones for the development of a hilltop playground in Trehgam at a cost of Rs 1.60 crore and renovation and preservation works of Shiv Temple at Trehgam costing Rs 1.94 crore. The Lieutenant Governor also distributed appointment letters to SPOs, job orders and sanction letters among beneficiaries under various schemes. He flagged off a mobile tuberculosis diagnosis and awareness vehicle during the event.
