The deceased sisters have been identified as Vartika and Deepika. Both had a special passion for mountaineering and trekking. They had earlier completed several challenging trekking expeditions up to Nepal. This time, however, the harsh Himalayan conditions proved fatal for them.

According to information, the two sisters had set out on a trip to Kedartal. The area is known for its difficult ascent, icy routes and rapidly changing weather. After information was received that both had gone missing during the trek, a search was carried out. After considerable effort, it was found that they were buried under snow. Vartika was active on social media as an influencer, while her sister Deepika was a graphics designer. The lives of both sisters revolved around adventure, travel and exploring new places. Their trekking journeys up to Nepal had brought recognition to their adventurous nature.

This tragic incident has once again raised questions over the precautions and safety arrangements required during trekking in Himalayan regions. According to experts, in high-altitude snowy areas it is extremely important to have weather information, permission from the local administration and the help of an experienced guide. The untimely deaths of the two sisters have deeply shocked not only their family, but also those who knew them and the people who followed them on social media.
