Tourism is the major source of livelihood in Jammu & Kashmir. Millions of people are connected to this sector in one or the other way. The Jammu & Kashmir government is giving full impetus to this sector to see the Union Territory grow, as per an Economic Times report. 
 
During the previous three decades of terrorism, this sector faced a major crisis. Hotels, houseboats, etc.remained vacant due to which the people associated with this sector suffered greatly.
 
After 2019, various measures have been taken by the Centre due to which the situation has improved.

 Strikes, stone pelting, grenades, etc., have almost ended. The result today is that domestic and foreign tourists are again flocking to Kashmir.
 
With the help of the L-G administration and the the central government, for the first time in Jammu and Kashmir, a record number of tourists have visited Kashmir.

There are also hundreds of foreigners in Jammu and Kashmir, and the benefits of the boom have benefited the ordinary man.
