Explanation:

The United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) has picked up Srinagar among 49 cities as part of the creative city network under the Crafts and Folk Arts category.

It’s a major recognition for Jammu and Kashmir. The inclusion is likely to pave way for the city to represent its handicrafts on the global stage through UNESCO.

The process of nomination of Srinagar under the UNESCO ‘Creative City Network’ was undertaken and funded under the World Bank-funded Jhelum Tawi Flood Recovery Project.

This is the recognition of the historical crafts and arts of the city.
