	Kinthup - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Kinthup was an explorer in the area of Tibet in the 1880s.
		So Kinthup returned to the monastery and some time later asked for permission to make another pilgrimage, then went to Lhasa, where he had a fellow Sikkimese take a letter to the survey authorities to announce when he would be throwing the logs into the river.
		Kinthup returned to the monastery and the next time he went on leave, threw the logs into the river as announced.

	Around 1880 the Tsangpo River Tsangpo River was still a mystery...
		Despite all, Kinthup was still dedicated to his task, and after a few months he asked permission to make a pilgrimage pilgrimage, and used his leave to cut and mark the logs.
		So Kinthup returned to the monastery, some time later asked for permission to make a pilgrimage again, and went to Lhasa Lhasa, where he had a fellow Sikkimese bring a letter to the survey authorities to tell about his fate, and announce when he would be throwing the logs into the river.
		Kinthup left the survey and became a tailor tailor.

	Discoverers Web: The Pundits
		To find this out, a pundit name Kinthup was sent into Tibet, together with a Chinese lama, as whose servant he would act.
		He did not throw them in the water yet - it was eighteen months since he had left India, and probably noone would be looking for them any more.
		Only years later did geographers realize that his reports and his story were completely correct - and that the Tsangpo and the Brahmaputra were indeed the same river.

		For instance there was Nain Singh from the Kumaon-Garhwal region, who was part of the expedition and did some daring feats in order to map the terrain of the Himalayas.
		Kinthup spent four years measuring the Himalayas, but in the end his work came to a naught, zilch, nada, nothing.
		One of the reasons why the British wanted to undertake this survey was to fill their gaps about their knowledge of the trans-himalayan range like the terrain, Tibet, the rivers from Mt. Kailash etc. By the end of the survey the British had a much better idea and knowledge of the mountain range.

		The recruits were not pundits by caste, but were a small group of eclectic group.
		There was Kinthup, the Tibetan tailor's assistant from Darjeeling, and there was Nain Singh from the Kumaon region among others.
		A major geopolitical reason that propelled the British to undertake the survey was Russia's ambitions in the Northwest frontier region.
