Honoring 'Abhaya': A Himalayan Tribute with a Mission

A team of mountaineers, scientists, and doctors is preparing to embark on Project SEEMA—a mission to the remote Tso-Moriri region in Ladakh, intending to commemorate a rape victim by symbolically naming an unnamed peak 'Abhaya'.

This multidisciplinary expedition will combine mountain exploration with studies on glaciers, rivers, and climate change, aiming to assist local Himalayan communities.

The initiative seeks to honor the victim's memory while promoting sustainability and self-reliance in isolated border regions, with plans for free health check-ups and education efforts.
