The Nathula Pass, a strategic trade route between India and China, is all set to resume trade activities from August 1. This move is expected to give a significant boost to the local economy in Sikkim, which has been affected by the closure of the pass for the past six years. The resumption of trade will not only benefit the local businesses but also provide employment opportunities to the people in the region. The trade route is crucial for the exchange of goods between the two countries, and its reopening is a welcome development for the people of Sikkim.
