June 7: The Nepalese Army has completed the Clean Mountain Campaign 2022 this year.

This was the third edition of the clean-up campaign initiated by the Nepalese Army in coordination with Rotary Club of Nagarjun and various donor agencies.

Under this campaign, the Nepalese Army collected as much as 33,800 tonnes of waste from four mountains including Mt Everest, Mt Lhotse, Mt Kanchanjunga and Mt Manaslu. 

The solid waste brought down from the mountains comprised of 7,227 kilograms of biodegradable matter and remaining were non-biodegradable, the Nepalese Army informed.

The cleaning team reportedly collected skeleton of two humans from Mt Kanchenjunga.        
The cleaning team included 30 army personnel and 48 Sherpas as support staff.    
The campaign that kicked off on March 5 concluded on the World Environment Day on Sunday.     During the closing ceremony, Chief of Army Staff (CoAS) General Prabhu Ram Sharma said that it was the supreme duty of humans to maintain environmental balance in the face on growing environmental degradation. The army chief distributed
letter of appreciation to the members of the cleaning campaign, supporting agencies and support staff.
