The site was identified as important in 2006 because it was regularly supporting significant populations of the species listed below, meeting ('triggering') IBA criteria.

Populations meeting IBA criteria ('trigger species'):

Species	Current IUCN Red List Category	Season	Year(s)	Population estimate at site	IBA criteria met
Himalayan Griffon Gyps himalayensis	NT	resident	2006	49 adults	A3
Cinereous Vulture Aegypius monachus	NT	resident	2006	28 adults	A1
Greater Spotted Eagle Clanga clanga	VU	passage	1998	50-500 adults	A1
Pallid Harrier Circus macrourus	NT	passage	1998	100-1,000 adults	A1
Lesser Kestrel Falco naumanni	LC	passage	1998	500-3,000 adults	A1, A4ii
Hume's Lark Calandrella acutirostris	LC	breeding	2006	7 adults	A3
Sulphur-bellied Warbler Phylloscopus griseolus	LC	breeding	2006	6 adults	A3
Himalayan Rubythroat Calliope pectoralis	LC	breeding	2006	1 unknown	A3

The current IUCN Red List category may differ from that which was valid at the time of IBA criteria assessment (2006).

Pressure (threats to the trigger species and/or their habitats)
Threat level 1	Threat level 2	Timing	Scope	Severity	Result
Agricultural expansion and intensification	livestock farming and ranching (includes forest grazing) - nomadic grazing	happening now	whole area/population (>90%)	very rapid to severe deterioration	very high
Biological resource use	hunting & collecting terrestrial animals - intentional use (species being assessed is the target)	happening now	majority/most of area/population (50-90%)	moderate to rapid deterioration	high

Response (conservation actions taken for the trigger species and/or their habitats)
Protected-area designation	Management planning	Other conservation action	Result
Little/none of site covered (<10%)	No management planning has taken place	Very little or no conservation action taking place	negligible
