Sikkim man delivers letters between lndia, China
Sikkim man Bhim Bahadur Tamang, who has been a postman for more than 25 years, delivers letters between India and China. The 61-year-old trudges through metres of snow at 14,000 feet to deliver mail across the mountainous border pass of Nathu La in Sikkim. An Indo-Chinese agreement in 1992 formally recognised the exchange of mail through Nathu La Pass.
