The first Indian research base named Dakshin Gangotri was set up on the ice shelf off the Princess Astrid Coast in central Queen Maud Land in 1983. This base was decommissioned due to excessive snow accumulation in 1989. Maitri is India's second permanent research station in Antarctica. It was built and finished in 1989, shortly before the first station Dakshin Gangotri was buried in ice and abandoned in 1990-91. Maitri is situated on the rocky mountainous region called Schirmacher Oasis, which is about 90 kms from the original base.
