Indian mountaineers say that in addition to the steps being taken by Nepal to prevent false climb claims, the Indian government also needs to take strong measures against errant climbers.
India’s mountaineering fraternity hung its head in shame earlier this week as news emerged of Nepal imposing a
10-year ban on two Indian climbers for submitting false claims to have summited the world’s highest peak.
Narendra Singh Yadav and Seema Rani Goswami, both from Haryana, claimed to have made it to the top of Mount Everest in 2016. They were even presented with certificates for their climb by the Nepal authorities. ....
