In what comes as good news, Rohtang pass has been thrown open from last week. The roads were restored by BRO on April 6, but tourists’ vehicles were allowed only up to the Gulaba barrier.

Deputy Commissioner (DC) Hans Raj Chauhan has said online permit to visit Rohtang region has been launched. The permit would be available to tourists three days in advance and online payment could be done through four websites hpkullu.nic.in, hpkullu.gov.in, himachal.gov.in and admis.hp.nic.in/ngtkullu.

The NGT has allowed 800 petrol and 400 diesel vehicles to go to the Pass for tourism purposes every day. The NGT had imposed charges of Rs 500 for all vehicles passing through the eco-sensitive Rohtang Pass area at the time of applying for permit and also Rs 50 as congestion charges. The BRO carries out maintenance of the Rohtang road on Tuesdays and thus vehicles are not permitted to go beyond Gulaba barrier on Tuesdays.

Adequate parking space had been made available at Rohtang after clearing the snow. The traffic police have been deployed at various places between Manali and Rohtang for smooth traffic movement.

He said permits would be issued to residents engaged in carrying out various adventure activities in the Rohtang region. The green tribunal also allowed tourism activities in the Rohtang Pass and permitted paragliding and snow scooters in limited number.
