NCC Pre-Everest Expeditions and training

To select the team for Mt Everest Expedition, 108 (one hundred and eight) NCC boy cadets were shortlisted from across the country and trained at Nehru Institute of Mountaineering, Uttarkashi.[2] Thereafter, 40 (forty) cadets were selected for the next stage i.e. Mt Deo Tibba Expedition (6,001 m/ 19,688 ft).[2] Deo Tibba is a peak of moderate height with medium to high difficulty of climbing. The peak is located in District Kullu of Himachal Pradesh with treacherous snow and ice slopes of gradient between 50-75 degrees.[3]

After successful expedition to Mt Deo Tibba in June 2012, 15 (fifteen) cadets were selected for the next Pre-Everest Expedition to Mt Kamet.[4] Mt Kamet at 7,756 m/ 25,446 ft is the third highest peak in India located in Garhwal region of Uttarakhand and is the highest peak which is permitted to be climbed in India.[4]

Nine cadets were finally selected and sent for Winter Acclimatization training to Siachen Glacier exposing them to extreme cold conditions where minimum temperatures fell to minus 50 (fifty) degrees Celsius.[2]

The NCC Mt Everest Expedition Team 2013 was led by Col S.C. Sharma, a renowned mountaineer, with 18 (eighteen) members: nine cadets from the NCC and nine Indian Army personnel. The team of 18 members consisted of 14 climbing members and four support staff.[5]

Eight NCC cadets and four Army personnel scaled Mount Everest in two teams on 19 and 20 May 2013.[10] The NCC cadets who scaled the peak were Cadets Khimi Ram, Ashwani Kumar, Rajat and Karma Dawa of Himachal Pradesh, Cadets Bidya Chand Singh and Chirom Shangkar Singh from Manipur, Cadet Sandeep Rai from West Bengal and Cadet Arvind Raturi from Uttarakhand. The Army personnel who scaled the peak were Subedar Jagat Singh Negi of Dogra Scouts, Havildar Rafiq Ahmed Malik of JAK LI, Havildar Raghuveer Chand of Garhwal Rifles and Rifleman Ramesh Bahadur Thapa of 3rd Gorkha Rifles.[5]
