Kailash-Manasarovar Yatra: India and China Discuss Alternate Route
India and China Discuss Alternate Route For Kailash-Manasarovar Yatra. On Wednesday, India and China concluded three days of border talks and agreed that maintenance of peace and tranquility on the border was an “important guarantor” for boosting bilateral ties.
On Wednesday, India and China concluded three days of border talks and agreed that maintenance of peace and tranquility on the border was an “important guarantor” for boosting bilateral ties. The two sides also discussed an alternate route for the Kailash-Manasarovar Yatra for pilgrims, as the current route is damaged at different places.
The three-day 6th Meeting of the Working Mechanism for Consultation and Coordination on the India-China Border Affairs held in Beijing on April 28th to April 30th was “cordial, constructive and forward-looking … at a time when the season is changing high-altitude areas along the India-China border,” said an official statement.
“An alternate route for the Kailash-Manasarovar Yatra was explored," Indian Embassy in China said in a statement, though it did not explain the need for an alternative route.
A report from Dehra Dun said the 107.6 km road from Pithoragrh to Tawaghat is in a very bad shape and needs repairs; while a bridge, washed away last year, has to be rebuilt. Kailash-Mansarovar Yatra is due to begin on June 12th and the Indian government is making the necessary arrangements for it.
