  3. We are waiting for the same event for years and now it feels like dream come true. We have high hope from our state govt that the expected steps will be taken and that will help ranking bir location in the world level , although it's already rank high but still feel like neglected. Bir billing is famous for paragliding in himachal but still we need to promote the location for more tourists which will be best for all the locals as well as tourists..
