We hope visitors will love to be here now enjoying their stay without any hassles."
Speaking on the occasion, MD & CEO Baldev Prakash said, "The launch of this e-ticketing platform is very much in line with the Government's focus on public convenience in general and comfort of tourists visiting J&K in particular. The e-booking provision has been made available on the website of Floriculture Department from the day one to enable the tourists from outside to plan their visit comfortably online besides saving the locals from hassles of long-waiting queues."
"For public convenience, we will integrate more such utility services into our digitalization drive to widen the ecosystem of online payments thereby increasing the overall efficiency of the region's financial system", he added.
Notably, the online booking system is very simple and easy to use. After clicking the online booking link available on the website of Kashmir Floriculture Department, one needs to enter the fields of Visit date, Visitor's Name and Visitor's mobile number and then proceed to payment gateway page and pay by credit card / debit card / internet banking / UPI.
