Ex-MP Urges PM To Revive Demchok-Dumchele Corridor To Boost Ladakh Economy
Former Ladakh MP Jamyang Tsering Namgyal urged Prime Minister Narendra Modi to revive the Demchok-Dumchele corridor. He said, "Reopening Demchok would restore one of India's oldest and shortest spiritual routes to Mount Kailash." Namgyal believes this move will boost Ladakh’s economy, create local jobs, and strengthen ties with the Himalayan region.
