Home ministry says climbers from Pakistan, Bangladesh, China and Afghanistan need permission to scale Indian peaks

New Delhi: Mountaineers from Pakistan, Bangladesh, Afghanistan and China will have to take prior permission for climbing "open peaks" in India and will have to follow specific routes as prescribed by the Indian Mountaineering Foundation, according to a Home ministry order.

Amending the over-70-year-old Foreigners Order, the Ministry of Home Affairs (MHA) issued a gazette notification on Friday saying that nationals or persons having their origin to the four countries will have to take permission for even climbing peaks which are "open".

The ministry said that Indian Mountaineering Foundation (IMF) shall specify routes, attach liaison officer and impose such restrictions "as it may deem necessary in respect of peaks which are so opened under specific orders issued by the Central Government".

India had earlier opened 137 peaks across the country which included Kanchenjunga, Nepal Peak in Sikkim, Garur Parbat and Purbi Dunagiri in Uttarakhand, Mount Kailash in Jammu and Kashmir, and Mulkila in Himachal Pradesh.


India has around 200 peaks. It said no foreigner or group of foreigners shall climb or attempt to climb any mountain peak in India, except those peaks which are opened for mountaineering or trekking expeditions, without obtaining the prior permission in writing of the Central government.

Most if not all climbers either go to Pakistan or Nepal since both of these countries have majority of world's tallest mountains.

India is just trying to show itself as important.

This is about India officially claiming peaks that are in Pakistan's administered Kashmir.

Illegal Bangladeshis control India's nuclear arsenal. It is a rogue army. An arm of the RSS

Most of the climbers from Bangladesh are actually fake climbers. So I have nothing to worry about the decision.

I remember a time when many in BD were claiming to have climbed Everest. To climb such peaks a country's people have to get used to climbing since childhood. Where are our mountain peaks to train and why suddenly they started claiming to reach the top? It is disgusting.

But, do you personally any of them or gone quite close to any of them?

You have to say something to feel relevant.

Pakistan has majestic peaks. We don't even piss on Indian mountains.

I know Musa the most decorated first climber of Bangladesh actually bribed shepherd to certify him that he reached the peak. Actually he never even climbed half way.
