Over 300 pilgrims were rescued on Wednesday from Nepalganj-Simikot-Hilsa route of Kailash Mansarovar Yatra, which passes through Nepal.
The embassy operated five flights and three sorties of Nepal Army chopper and evacuated 119 people from Simikot to Surkhet.
They were later sent from Surkhet to Nepalganj through buses.
Apart from this, the Indian embassy in Nepal has also operated 35 sorties of choppers between Hilsa and Simikot and evacuated close to 200 people from the region.
The Embassy is further looking into the possibility of hiring chartered choppers and operating them on various evacuation routes subject to weather condition.
Earlier in the day, mortal remains of the two Indian pilgrims, one from Andhra Pradesh and another from Kerala, were brought to Kathmandu and Nepalganj by a special helicopter.
