trudging through snow-covered roads. Divesh, a tourist from Mumbai said that he
was delighted to see the snowfall since such an enchanting moment is never
witnessed
in his coastal city. "I belong to Mumbai and watching snowfall is like experiencing
my biggest joy," said Divesh. Another tourist, Ajay mentioned that he has plans
