Kinnaur locals protest demanding permanent ban on Kinner Kailash Yatra

Residents from the Tukpa Khunang region and members of the Dev Samaj staged a massive protest rally in Reckong Peo, Himachal Pradesh. The demonstrators submitted a memorandum to the Deputy Commissioner of Kinnaur demanding an immediate, permanent ban on the Kinner Kailash Yatra. Protesters cited severe environmental degradation, melting glaciers, and the explicit displeasure of local deities as reasons, alleging that unauthorized tourists continue to bypass the official monsoon suspension.
