Indian mountaineer Subrata Ghosh dies on Mount Everest

An Indian mountaineer died on Mount Everest after suffering symptoms of altitude sickness, officials confirmed. Subrata Ghosh, 45, died on Thursday below the Hillary Step while returning after reaching the 8,849-metre peak. Hillary Step is located in the 'death zone', an area between 8,000-metre high South Col and the summit where the level of natural oxygen is inadequate for survival.
