You might be allowed entry to Siachen glacier soon. Army Chief General Bipin Rawat said he is thinking over a proposal to open the Siachen Glacier to people. The Army is considering a proposal to re-open Siachen Glacier, the world’s highest battlefield, in Ladakh for tourists.
Mountaineering expeditions used to be allowed to Siachen till 1984 before the ice-clad high altitude region was militarized following machinations by Pakistan.
The proposal is being considered with all earnestness since it has come directly from Army Chief General Bipin Rawat but no concrete road map has yet been laid out in this direction.
