Shri Keshav Kisan Bhangare has etched his name into history by becoming the first disabled climber to successfully ascend 114 difficult forts across Maharashtra, India. This remarkable achievement is not just a personal milestone but a powerful symbol of courage, perseverance, and human willpower.
Maharashtra is home to hundreds of historic forts, many located on steep hilltops, surrounded by rugged terrain, narrow trails, rocky ascents, and unpredictable weather conditions. Climbing even a few of these forts is considered a challenging task. Ascending 114 difficult forts, especially while overcoming physical limitations, elevates this accomplishment to an extraordinary level.
Shri Keshav’s journey reflects unwavering determination. Each fort he climbed demanded physical endurance, mental strength, strategic planning, and emotional resilience. His achievement challenges societal perceptions of disability and redefines what is possible when passion meets perseverance.
Beyond personal triumph, this record carries a deeper message. It inspires people with disabilities to pursue their dreams fearlessly and encourages society to view ability through the lens of potential rather than limitation. Shri Keshav’s success also highlights the importance of inclusive recognition in adventure, sports, and record-keeping.
The Genius Book of Records proudly honors Shri Keshav Kisan Bhangre for this unparalleled feat, recognizing not just the number of forts climbed, but the spirit behind every ascent. His achievement stands as a beacon of hope, motivation, and empowerment for future generations.
This record is a reminder that history is shaped not by physical strength alone, but by courage, commitment, and an unyielding belief in oneself.
