'No responsibility for explosion,' parking ticket says

In Kashmir state of India where violence is quite routine affair due to terrorists activity in the valley , parking lots are also not taking any responsibility for the explosions & ticket of the parking place says 'no responsibility for explosions'.

Due to terrorists activity, daily earnings of houseboat owners at Dal Lake have dipped due to low tourist arrivals in the Kashmir Valley this season.

There has been an alarming 40 percent drop in tourist arrivals this year, which could hit the state's economy - as well as its 110 million population, many of whom depend on tourism, handicrafts and handlooms for survival.

The main reason for the drop in tourism, of course, is concern about safety. Apart from the possibility of terrorist strikes, the fact remains that people on a holiday do not like the sight of gun-toting security men everywhere.

The city comes to a near-standstill after dusk and visitors are not encouraged to step out of their hotels.

Its high time that the state government considers deleting this line from the parking tickets for the Mughal Gardens in Kashmir Valley: 'No responsibility for explosions.'
