We tried to visit February 2024. Started emailing the Walking Tour mentioned in some news articles in November 2023. Eventually we recieved an email one week before our planned visit that Military Clearance was still required. Obviously too late to arrange thst. I think if I was trying again I might try asking my MP for a letter of introduction to the High Commission of India in London. Write to them asking how to obtain Military Clearance?

Q:

Q:
