Climbing in Indian Himalayas
I assume that climbing terms and conditions are much different in India as compared to else where in the world. And perhaps the basic reason is India sharing it's border with China, Pakistan , Bhutan, Nepal and Tibet
Climbing above 6000m should have permission from Defence and payment of royalty fee to Indian Gov. is must.Last year there had been detentions and jail terms to many who were found climbing mountains with out proper paper work.
