Abstract

One of the northern state of India is Jammu and Kashmir of which Kashmir is referred to as summer capital of the state Jammu and Kashmir. Kashmir was entitled as “Paradise” by famous 2 Mughal emperor Jahangir. However, in the Kashmiri language, the paradise is referred as “Kasheer”. In the past decades, the construction industry of Kashmir was not at all active. A major part of the construction industry was the construction of roads and a few hospitals. Construction of residential buildings was not at a pace. However, with the increase in the population the construction industry of Kashmir has boosted up and construction of residential as well as non-residential buildings say construction of railway lines, flyovers etc. is picking up its momentum. Because of the unique climatic, political conditions and less competence with the technology of the valley we can comprehend that the construction projects of the valley are different moreover their accomplishment is difficult. The core purpose of this study is to find the cause of delay in the construction industry of Srinagar (Kashmir), where one of the biggest project of the valley was chosen and the causes of delay therein were found with the help of a case study.
