Shimla, Aug 27,
Displaying a feat of endurance and determination, Himachal Pradesh Police Constable Bindiya Kaushal has scaled the formidable Kang Yatse Peak, standing tall at 6,250 meters (20,600 feet) in the Ladakh region of Jammu and Kashmir. This achievement not only makes her the first woman constable to conquer two major peaks but also highlights the growing strength and resilience of women in challenging fields.
Kang Yatse Peak is renowned for its tough and challenging terrain. Typically, the expedition takes 10 to 12 days to complete due to its steep slopes and unpredictable weather. However, Bindiya Kaushal defied the odds by completing the trek in just six days—a testament to her physical and mental strength.
What makes this achievement even more commendable is that Bindiya funded both of her expeditions independently, demonstrating her unwavering passion and commitment to mountaineering. Her success not only brings pride to the Himachal Pradesh Police but also shines a spotlight on the Naidun region of Hamirpur district, where she hails from.
Bindiya’s accomplishment is more than just a personal victory; it is a powerful symbol of women breaking the glass ceiling in traditionally male-dominated fields. Her success is sure to inspire other women, particularly in law enforcement, to pursue their dreams and take on new challenges.
As the first woman constable to reach these heights, Bindiya Kaushal has set a new benchmark for others to follow. Her remarkable journey will undoubtedly serve as an inspiration for her colleagues and the younger generation of women looking to carve out their own paths in life.
