Anmish Varma Bhupati Raju is on a quest to conquer the Seven Summits — the highest peak of each continent
Anmish Varma Bhupati Raju, 28, from Visakhapatnam, has climbed Mt. Denali, North America’s highest mountain, on June 5.
In his quest to conquer the Seven Summits — the highest peak of each continent — Mr. Bhupati Raju has now scaled Mt. Denali, Mt. Everest (Asia), Mt. Elbrus (Europe), Mt. Kilimanjaro (Africa), and Mt. Aconcagua (South America).
Mr. Bhupati Raju, who is also a martial arts champion, has won several medals for India. He is the first Indian to get gold at the World Martial Arts Championship, which was held at Athens in Greece in 2018. He also secured gold at Austria in 2019.
He established an NGO ‘Kalpavruksh’ in 2010, through which he has trained over one lakh girls and women in self-defence.

Former CM B.S. Yediyurappa had challenged the first information report registered on March 14, 2024, on the alleged incident that occurred on February 2, 2024, the chargesheet filed by the Criminal Investigation Department (CID), and the February 28, 2025, order of taking cognisance of offences afresh by the trial court.
