J&K: 7 killed after tree falls on cable car at Gulmarg

Seven people, including four tourists from Delhi and three tourist guides, were killed when a cable car came crashing down after a ropeway snapped in midair at world famous ski resort of Gulmarg in Baramulla district in Jammu and Kashmir, this afternoon.

Officials said a tree, uprooted by strong winds, fell on the ropeway connecting Gulmarg base camp with Affarwat, the highest skiing point.

Senior Superintendent of Police Baramulla, Imtiyaz Hussain, said all the stranded tourists numbering over 100 have been rescued and the cable is being restored to get the cars running again. Two other injured were taken to a hospital in Srinagar.

Since its inauguration in 1998, it is the first of its kind of incident in the Gulmarg cable car service, which was built by a French firm. The cable car has the capacity ferry 600 people in one hour.
