Shimla’s 105-year-old ice rink opens for winter

Manpreet Singh Sembi, President of the Shimla Ice Skating Rink, said climate change continues to impact the sport. He said “Yes, the club has conducted trials, and today's trials were successful. Because of global warming, the environment is affected. The number of sessions is decreasing each year, so the number of skaters has also decreased. We are dependent on the weather for the functioning of the ice skating rink.”
