Around 175 Indians on their way back home after the Kailash-Mansarovar pilgrimage in Tibet remained stranded in Nepal's Humla district for the second day as commercial flights could not operate due to bad weather, the Indian Embassy said.

The situation, however, is under control and all the pilgrims will be evacuated as soon as the weather clears up, said Indian Embassy spokesperson Roshan Lepcha. The embassy on Monday had estimated that there were around 200 pilgrims stuck in Humla's Simikot due to bad weather.
