He said, "With great joy I inform you that Babar Ali made history today (Tuesday), becoming the first Bangladeshi to reach the top of Mount Lhotse, the fourth-highest mountain in the world.
He has flown the Bangladeshi flag at the summit." "On May 19, Babar reached the summit of Mount Everest. A new chapter in Bangladesh’s mountaineering history has begun today.
This is the first time any Bangladeshi has scaled two mountain summits over 8,000 metres tall during the same expedition." Babar had come down from Everest and rested at Camp-4 before setting off for Lhotse on Monday night. On Tuesday morning, he wrote on the Facebook page of his own organisation Vertical Dreamers, "Today, the three-day long wait is over.
We can do it! It is possible for us too!" "It is the first time the summit of Lhotse has been climbed by a child of Bangladesh and the first time one has climbed two 8,000m summits in the same expedition. May the nation rejoice for at least today. But let’s not forget that Babar has started his descent.
The main celebration will begin once he reaches the base camp." Farhan Zaman, the leader of the expeditio.
