The whole of North India is in shivers as the mercury continues to go south. While most of the north Indianstates hardly touch 0 degrees, there is a town in our country that is often touted (not officially) as the worlds 2nd coldest inhabited town. And mind you, that statement puts the place amongst some of the coldest towns that dwell in subzero temperatures, example Oymyakon (Republic of Sakha, northeast Russia). Dras (or Drass) is a town in the Kargil District of Jammu and Kashmir which experiences subarctic climate. At the height of winters, the mercury in Dras can dip to as low as -45 degree Celsius.
