“We need support and cooperation from the stakeholders in further promoting the 75 offbeat destinations identified by the department across J-K this year,” the tourism secretary said.

He also advised them to come up with attractive and competitive packages so that more and more tourists are attracted to visit Jammu and Kashmir.
