Ram Bahadur Tamang Gole, a staff of SIRC (a project run by SISN), started his third wheelchair tour from East to West Nepal on 27th February 2021. He successfully covered 1152.8 km from Kakkarbhitta to Mahendranagar Mahakali bridge in 26 days.
Ram, who was paralyzed from the waist down in 2010 as a result of a road accident, aims to set a Guinness World Record on the longest distance wheeled on a regular wheelchair. His previous tours were from Namo Buddha to Lumbini (366kms) in 2014 and Kathmandu to Bodhgaya (553kms) in 2018.
