The Manaslu summit was organized by the Government of Nepal, in which Asmita Dorji has scaled the 8163 meter high mountain 'Manaslu' without oxygen supplementation. Asmita Dorji completed this summit after a difficult climb of almost 26 days.
Just four hours before Asmita Dorji, Baljeet Kaur of Himachal had completed this summit without oxygen. It is noteworthy that Asmita Dorji is a resident of Sonari Kadma Link Road in Jamshedpur, Jharkhand and she is currently working as Senior Instructor of Tata Steel Adventure Foundation (TSAF).
