Autumn Colours In Srinagar

Boys walk among maple trees in autumn in Srinagar on Friday. Trees are changing colours and the days are becoming shorter as winter approaches in Kashmir. Most places in the state continue to reel under intense cold with the night temperature staying below the freezing point.

Kargil in Ladakh registered the season's coldest night at minus 9.2C and Srinagar recorded a low of minus 2.5C - four degrees below normal.
