The Gilgit-Baltistan government has begun preparing to celebrate the return of Skardu-based mountaineer Hassan Sadpara, who became the one of the few Pakistanis to climb the world's highest peak Mount Everest.

"He is our national hero and we will give him a befitting reception when he returns home," Chief Minister Mehdi Shah said on Friday.
