| All Foreigners are requested to register their arrival and departure with this Office: Foreigners Regional Registration Office (FRRO) Superintendent of Police (CID) Canal Road Jammu Jammu and Kashmir is the part of the disputed state that is administered by India. It shares a border with China to the north-east, the states of Himachal Pradesh and Punjab to the south and the Pakistani-administered territories of Kashmir, namely Azad Kashmir and the Northern Areas to the west and north-west respectively. Formerly a part of the erstwhile princely state of Jammu and Kashmir, this territory is disputed between China, India and Pakistan. Jammu and Kashmir is referred to by Pakistan as "Indian-occupied Kashmir". Jammu and Kashmir consist of three regions, Jammu, the Kashmir valley and Ladakh. Srinagar is the summer capital, and Jammu its winter capital. While the Kashmir valley, often known as Paradise on Earth, is famous for its beautiful mountainous landscape, Jammu's numerous shrines attracts tens of thousands of Hindu and Muslim pilgrims every year. Ladakh, also known as "Little Tibet", is renowned for its remote mountain beauty and Buddhist culture. Jammu and Kashmir is the sixth largest state in India including the area occupied by Pakistan and China. The crown of India lies in the extreme north of the country and is bounded on three sides by China, Afghanistan and Pakistan. A major portion of the Jammu and Kashmir state consists of the western Himalayas, which besides many lofty mountain ranges with varying heights of 3000 to 6000 meters and above, also abound in rivers, lakes, passes, glaciers, plateaus and plains. The most important rivers are the Indus, Chenab, Jehlum and Ravi. |
