This is regarding the Andharban incident that happened on 04th May ,2019.

We started the trek at 10 40 AM with a group of guys who we were following. They made arrows with chalk on their way so that we’ll be able to follow them and not lose our way. It was all going good but by 4 PM, one of our friend was feeling very tired and needed water. We got to the water point and gave him water and started again. We were almost there, but our friend was losing hope and couldn’t walk. So we told him to rest there and we’ll get help. We got to the top of mountain contacted the Andharban Rescue Team and shared our position. In the meantime we also contacted the SOS Emergency, and talked to the control cell. But instead of listening to our problems, they were busy arguing about who should handle this distress call. I was giving them our coordinates but they were not ready to talk and started abusing us as well as the control room person.  I disconnected the call and called the rescue team number again and they finally came through for us.
