THIRUVANANTHAPURAM: Shaikh Hassan Khan has embarked on a unique plan to celebrate the 75th year of the country's Independence by planting the national flag in each of the highest mountain peaks of 195 countries across the world. In his latest effort, he has conquered Mount Denali, the highest peak in North America, situated in Alaska which has a height of 20,310 feet above sea level.

Mountaineering has been a passion for Hassan, an assistant section officer in the finance department in the secretariat and a native of Pandalam, since 2017 when he joined the government service as an assistant liaison officer in Kerala House, New Delhi. "Mountaineering became a passion when I visited the Himalayan Mountaineering Institute in Darjeeling. I did a basic course in mountaineering from Uttarakhand and then an advanced course from Darjeeling," he said. Being a government employee, he is facing two major challenges -- the leave tha...
