Concerned stakeholders have agreed to conduct all climbing activities in spring of this year by giving high priority to the safety of the mountaineers and all the workers in the field of mountaineering.

The agreement was reached at a meeting of the Mountaineering Monitoring and Facilitation Committee held at the base camp of the world’s highest peak, Mount Everest, today. The meeting was attended by representatives of all the agencies that reached the base camp for the ascent.

 The participants in the meeting agreed that the rules related to mountaineering in the mountains should be fully complied with, the climbers should go on foot and return on foot, and other activities should not be allowed in the mountains.
