Tasaduq Jeelani, Director Tourism, Kashmir, has flagged off a 5-day motorsports expedition on August 11. The event, organized by Moto Explorers Club in collaboration with Department of Tourism, features 35 participants.

The participants will drive 4×4 off-road vehicles to cover the 2000 kilometers from Kashmir to Ladakh.
