Located at a height of around 18,000 feet, the Milam Glacier is one of the most popular tourist destinations in the Pithoragarh district of Uttarakhand.
The ITBP has decided to allow tourists, mountaineers and trekkers to go up to the Milam glacier without an inner-line permit, a mandatory requirement that was in place for decades.
Located at a height of around 18,000 feet, the Milam Glacier is one of the most popular tourist destinations in this Uttarakhand district and the necessity of carrying an inner-line permit to go there was adversely affecting tourism prospects.
"The ITBP has ordered its staff to let every tourist go up to the Milam glacier without carrying an inner-line pass," Munsiyari Sub-Divisional Magistrate (SDM) Yashbir Singh said.
