Heavy snowfall in Hilsa strands 41 Nepalis headed for Kailash Mansarovar yatra

Continuous rain and heavy snowfall at Hilsa, Humla's northern border point, have stranded 41 Nepalis. The snowfall has disrupted their Kailash Mansarovar pilgrimage.

They have been stuck at Hilsa after the snowfall affected movement on the Hilsa-Taklakot route.

The group had reached Hilsa last Friday. They are said to have been stranded at the border point after the snowfall began.

Hilsa is a border point on Humla's northern frontier. Pilgrims heading to Kailash Mansarovar travel via Hilsa to Taklakot.
