At Srinagar Airport, announcements in Kashmiri

The next time you land in Kashmir, don’t be surprised if you hear flight operators at the Srinagar International Airport making announcements in a language you don’t understand. From Wednesday, announcements are also being made in Kashmiri.
The order to this effect was issued by Srinagar Airport director O S Tyagi on Tuesday. “Besides English and Hindi, operators will make all announcements in Kashmiri also,” he said. “Many passengers were facing difficulties and we felt that there was a need for making announcements in Kashmiri also. We hope this move will help a large number of travelers,” he said. Tyagi said operators too had shown keen interest in making announcements in Kashmiri.
