A dedicated team of employees from the Gulmarg Cable Car Corporation is working silently behind the scenes to ensure the famous ski-resort Gulmarg remains clean, safe, and a source of unforgettable memories for the thousands of tourists who visit every year.
From early mornings to late evenings, these employees — ranging from operational staff to maintenance crews — are putting in relentless efforts to maintain the pristine beauty of the area surrounding the cable car stations and the Gondola route.
Braving unpredictable weather and harsh conditions, their work involves regular garbage collection, path clearing, and upkeep of facilities to provide a seamless experience to tourists.
Leading this mission is Qamar Sajad, Managing Director of the Cable Car Corporation Gulmarg, who has brought renewed energy and direction to the iconic project. Under his leadership, the Corporation has not only focused on technical efficiency and safety but also prioritized environmental cleanliness and guest satisfaction. "Cleanliness and hospitality go hand in hand. Tourists come here for the natural beauty, and it is our responsibility to preserve it," said Qamar Ahmed during an interaction with the media. "Our employees are the backbone of this operation. They are doing an exceptional job and their dedication deserves all the appreciation."
The efforts have not gone unnoticed. Tourists from different parts of the country and abroad have praised the high standards of cleanliness and the courteous behavior of the staff.
Social media platforms are abuzz with positive reviews and images of well-maintained surroundings and efficiently managed Gondola rides.
Apart from the daily cleaning routines, the staff has been organizing awareness campaigns for tourists, encouraging them to dispose of waste properly and respect the natural environment. Special signages have been installed at multiple points to guide and educate visitors about eco-friendly practices.
In addition, safety drills and crowd management strategies are being executed meticulously, especially during peak tourist seasons. The cable car operations are monitored continuously to avoid any technical glitches, and the stations are equipped with emergency response teams to tackle any unforeseen issues.
"The recent improvements have made our trip to Gulmarg much more enjoyable," said a tourist from Delhi. "The cleanliness and warmth of the staff made a huge difference."
Gulmarg Cable Car Corporation has also taken steps toward sustainable tourism by exploring green energy options and minimizing plastic usage across its operations. The Corporation’s long-term plan includes upgrading facilities, expanding digital ticketing, and introducing more tourist-friendly amenities.
As tourism continues to be a vital contributor to Jammu and Kashmir’s economy, the dedicated efforts of the Gulmarg Cable Car Corporation employees — guided by the proactive leadership of MD Qamar Sajad— stand as a shining example of how commitment, care, and teamwork can elevate the image of a destination.
