Kailash Manasarovar Yatra organized by Ministry of External Affairs is set to commence from June 2019 till September 2019. Sh. Vijay Gokhale, Foreign Secretary today conducted the computerized draw for selection of Yatris who had registered for this Yatra.
The selection is a fair computer-generated, random gender-balanced selection process.
The selected Yatris are informed through SMS and email messages. Applicants for the Yatra can also login at the website http https://kmy.gov.in to check the status of their selection, or through the automated helpline number No:011-24300655.
This year 2996 applicants had successfully registered on-line at the website for this Yatra, which includes 2256 male applicants, and 740 female applicants. As per schedule for 2019, there would be 18 batches consisting of 60 Yatris via the Lipulekh route,
and 10 batches consisting of 50 Yatris via the Nathu La route which is fully motorable, and involves very little trekking. The Nathu La route is expected to benefit senior citizens who are keen to go for this pilgrimage.
