Indian mountaineer Anurag Maloo, who was missing since Monday after falling into a deep gorge on Nepal’s Mount Annapurna, was located alive in critical condition by rescuers. His brother informed this on Thursday.

“He is found alive. He has been taken to the hospital in critical condition, but he is still alive,” his brother Sudhir said. “We will have to shift our focus towards the medical side now,” he added.
