Aritra Roy Makes History as First from Tripura to Summit Mount Everest

Aritra Roy, Tripura’s 28-year-old hero, a resident of Badharghat, conquers Mount Everest, becoming the first from his state to summit the world’s highest peak in a historic feat of courage.

 

Agartala, May 19, 2025: In a historic triumph that has ignited waves of pride across Tripura, 28-year-old Aritra Roy from Badharghat, Agartala, has etched his name in the annals of mountaineering by successfully scaling Mount Everest, the world’s highest peak at 29,035 feet. On Monday, May 19, at 7:31 AM Nepal time – exactly 72 years after Tenzing Norgay and Edmund Hillary’s pioneering ascent on May 29, 1953 – Roy became the first Bengali youth from Tripura to conquer the formidable Himalayan giant, fulfilling a dream that carried the hopes of an entire state.

Roy’s extraordinary journey, marked by relentless determination, physical endurance, and an indomitable spirit, began on March 16 when he embarked on a solo bicycle odyssey from Agartala. Pedaling through the rugged terrains of Jalpaiguri and battling fierce storms, he reached Everest Base Camp earlier this month. His meticulous preparation and unyielding resolve propelled him through subzero temperatures, treacherous icefalls, and howling winds that tested the limits of human endurance.

A pivotal milestone in Roy’s quest came on Sunday, when he scaled Mount Lobuche, a challenging 20,100-foot peak in Nepal’s Himalayas. This ascent, a critical acclimatization climb, showcased his mental fortitude and physical prowess, setting the stage for his final push to Everest’s summit. Braving extreme conditions, including powerful storms and fierce winds, his unwavering focus carried him to the top of the world, where Aritra Roy unfurled the Indian tricolor and the flag of Tripura, symbolizing a victory for his state and nation.

Veteran mountaineer Pranab Akhanda, a revered figure in Tripura’s adventure community, had extended his heartfelt wishes to Aritra Roy on the eve of his summit attempt. After Roy’s success today, Akhanda joined a chorus of supporters in celebrating the young adventurer’s triumph. “Aritra is a source of immense pride and affection for Tripura. His courage and determination are an inspiration to us all,” Pranab Akhanda said. “We prayed for his success, and now we pray for his safe return.”

Aritra Roy, the elder son of the late football coach Sanjay Roy and Kakali Roy, has long been a beacon of resilience in his community. His journey to Everest was not just a personal quest but a collective dream for Tripura, a state that has rallied behind him with unwavering support. Citizens of Tripura have followed his progress with bated breath, their hopes soaring with each step he took toward the summit.

The path to Everest was fraught with challenges. Roy’s solo bicycle journey to Base Camp was a testament to his audacious spirit, as he navigated unpredictable weather and grueling conditions. Upon arriving at Base Camp, he faced the daunting task of acclimatizing to the thin air and extreme altitudes of the Himalayas. His successful climb of Mount Lobuche was a crucial step, proving his readiness for the ultimate challenge. Yet, it was his final ascent through the perilous Khumbu Icefall, the crevassed Lhotse Face, and the oxygen-scarce Death Zone that truly defined his historic achievement.

As news of Roy’s triumph spread, Tripura erupted in celebration. Social media platforms buzzed with messages of congratulations, with posts hailing him as a “hero of Tripura” and a “trailblazer for the youth.” Alongwith sports fraternity, Community leaders, schools, and local organizations joined in honoring his feat, with many calling for a grand welcome upon his return. “Aritra has shown the world what Tripura is capable of,” said a local Badharghat, Agartala based resident. “He’s made us all proud.”

Roy is now descending toward Base Camp, a journey that remains fraught with challenges due to the physical toll of high-altitude climbing and the unpredictable Himalayan weather.

Communication from the mountain has been limited, with updates scarce due to the remote terrain. The people of Tripura, while jubilant, remain anxious for his safe and healthy return, sending heartfelt prayers for his well-being.

Roy’s achievement is more than a personal milestone; it is a landmark moment for Tripura, a state that has rarely been in the global spotlight for mountaineering. His success has inspired a new generation of adventurers, proving that with grit and determination, even the highest peaks are within reach. As Tripura awaits his return, Aritra Roy stands tall as a symbol of courage, resilience, and the unyielding spirit of a state that dares to dream big.
