High altitude winter cuisine in snow locked Spiti in Himachal Pradesh is nourishing, and makes the best use of available ingredients
For the first time in 75 years, Kaza Village in Spiti district of Himachal Pradesh has been picked for a function on the occasion of 'Himachal Day' on April 15.
The Spiti Valley is used to issuing 'self-imposed' lockdowns in the winter, which is why locals didn't flinch at the nationwide pandemic lockdown and in fact banned tourist entry to prevent spread.
Three casual labourers got buried in the snow along with snow cutter/dozers as avalanche hit Chika village in the district, officials said.
