Chatroo

Chatroo (Urdu: چھاترون) is a small village and an administrative subdivision located in the Kishtwar district of the Indian Union Territory of Jammu and Kashmir.

Its geographic location places it in a remote area, with challenging terrain that affects accessibility, particularly during the winter months when heavy snowfall can cut off-road connections.
