A ‘dream-come-true’ expedition to Mount Kilimanjaro

It was indeed a proud moment for a group of adventure enthusiasts from Karnataka when they successfully scaled Mount Kilimanjaro in Tanzania, Africa a few days ago, and hoisted the tricolour atop the peak in celebration of India’s Azadi Ka Amrit Mahotsav.

When Indians across the globe were celebrating 75 years of India’s independence, the passionate adventure enthusiasts were climbing one of the world’s tallest mountains as they started scaling the peak on August 14 and accomplished their ‘dream-come-true’ mission on August 19. They reached the summit in a span of five days.

The seven-member team was overjoyed for reaching the summit and hoisting the national flag being the proud Indians, especially on the occasion when Indians all over the world celebrated the country’s 75 years of freedom.
