TL;DR

A dry winter in Indian-controlled Kashmir has devastated the ski tourism industry in Gulmarg, one of Asia's highest ski resorts, as the region experiences a significant lack of snow due to extreme weather patterns linked to global warming and El Niño. The absence of snow has led to widespread cancellations, closed rental shops, and unemployment for ski instructors and other vendors who rely on the winter tourism season for their livelihoods, posing a significant threat to the region's economy and tourism industry.
