3 days, no sign: Race against time in Uttarakhand to save 8 trekkers

What's behind this

Search for Kedartal trekkers has entered its fifth day, with blizzards, heavy snowfall and avalanche‑hit terrain hampering rescue efforts. Eight trekkers remain missing, including five from West Bengal’s Bankura district, after an avalanche and sudden snowstorm struck the Uttarakhand trek. More SDRF teams have been deployed to continue the search, according to officials.
