The Union Ministry of Home Affairs has granted permission for foreign tourists to take part in the Ladakh Nomadic Festival, scheduled to take place during the weekend, officials said. This event’s third edition, which will be organised from July 15-16 in the Changthang region, will allow international visitors to stay in the charming Hanle village, they said.
Ladakh Autonomous Hill Development Council, Leh, Chairman Tashi Gyalson expressed gratitude to the ministry and Ladakh Lt Governor Brigadier (Retd) BD Mishra for the decision to allow foreign tourists to take part.
He highlighted the significance of the festival and hailed the long-standing demand for permitting foreign tourists to explore the Union Territory’s eastern border.
Not only tourists and devotees within the country but those from abroad have started booking trips to Prayagraj to be a part of the mega religious event, which the state government would be making a vibrant grand event. Moreover, now with the official dates for Shahi Snan and all the major festival bath days have been announced by the district administration, tour operators are relieved as they can now finalise the plans of their customers.
