Also this:
Drass in western Ladakh is the coldest place in India. It is also the second coldest place in the world after Siberia. Temperatures drop down to about -40 degrees Celsius in winters. However, summers in Drass are balmy and many trekkers and campers visit Drass during the summer time. Drass has an altitude of 3230 m and lies 60 km west of Kargil on the road to Srinagar. The Drass valley starts from the base of the Zojila pass, the Himalayan gateway to Ladakh. Drass is a convenient base camp for treks to Suru valley. Inhabitants of Drass are of Dard descent, an Indo-Aryan race believed to have originally migrated to Ladakh from Central Asia.

it's not that stupid, most people think of extremely hot weather when they think of India. I'm sure there are some small places in the world where you are unfamiliar with their climates as well..
was -3C this morning here.. warmed up to 5 and around 8 the rest of the week, that's pretty warm for december though.
