Budgam: In a first, mobile phones started ringing in Doodhpathri, a picturesque destination in central Kashmir’s Budgam district, after Jio installed two mobile towers in the area.
AN official said that the initiative has opened up a new chapter for Doodpathri, bringing it closer to the world like never before.
Deputy Commissioner of Budgam Akshay Labroo said that these cellular towers would bridge the communication gap that the destination had faced for so long.

He added that they are planning to establish selfie points, public bathrooms, and parks in the near future. “These developments aim to enhance the overall experience for tourists, making Doodpathri an even more inviting destination for nature enthusiasts and travelers.”—(KNO)
