Publication Year: 1979.

Disciplinary Measures Taken by the Nepalese Government. Four expeditions have been disciplined by the Nepalese government for having made illegal climbs. These were the Poles for having climbed the middle peak of Kanchenjunga, the Spaniards who had permission for Yalung Kang for having attempted the same peak of Kanchenjunga, the Japanese who had permission for Nampa for having climbed Jetiboburani and the Japanese who had permission for Himal Chuli for having climbed the west summit instead. The members of these parties will not be allowed to enter Nepal for three years and may not climb there for five.
