The UPA government tried to stop this yatra but the initiative was taken by the Buddhists of Laddkah who with the help and support of others formed the Sindhu Darshan Yatra Samiti to keep this annual event going on uninterrupted.
Sindhi Samaj and Himalaya Parivar contributed their mite in this endeavor to keep this yatra going on.
