Jangbu Sherpa feted for hoisting Khabarhub’s flag on Everest



KATHMANDU: Pavilion Media and Khabarhub  have feted Nepali mountaineer Jangbu Sherpa for scaling  Mt Everest with the Khabarhub flag.

Naresh Shrestha, chairman of Khabarhub, honored Sherpa with a bouquet of flowers and congratulated him for hoisting Khabarhub’s flag atop Mt Everest amidst a ceremony at the Pavilion Hall today.

Speaking at the felicitation ceremony sixteen-time  Everest summiteer  Sherpa said the world’s highest peak is melting day by day due to global warming. “Mt Everest is melting almost every day. The government has to take the initiative to save Everest immediately,” said Sherpa.
