Is Ms Chanda Gayen applied for fund from WBM&AF for her expeditions to Mt. Kanchenjunga Main (8586 m.)  & Kanchenjunga West peaks ?  

Is WBM&AF has examined her plan to climb Kanchenjunga & Kanchenjunga West peaks ? What was the conclusion of the sanctioning authority of the WBM&AF in respect of Ns Gayen plan to climb both peaks in this venture ?

On 18^th May 2014 there were 4 climbers who have climbed Kanchenjunga from Nepal Himalayas whether 3 climbers also sanctioned fund by the WBM&AF ?

As per the media report 3 climbing members left base camp of Kanchenjunga  for their  return journey after hearing the accident occurred  at Yalung glacicer of Kanchenjunga West peak, Why no attempts was made by these climbers for search and rescue operation to the victim climber & sherpas ?

What is the policy of WBM&AF for funding climbers for mountaineering expeditions, is there any policy in this respect, if so is it circulated to all ?
