The Tourism and Civil Aviation Department of Sikkim has announced a decentralization of the Protected Area Permit system. This initiative, in line with the directives of Chief Minister Prem Singh Tamang, aims to simplify access to popular tourist destinations such as Nathula Pass and Tsomgo Lake, thereby promoting balanced tourism development in the Namchi and Soreng Districts. Effective from September 24 onwards, the new policy will allow for the issuance of 50 vehicle permits per day for Nathula Pass through designated tourism offices in each district. This change is expected to significantly reduce the bureaucratic hurdles currently faced by travelers, making it easier for both domestic and foreign tourists to explore these scenic locales.
