“Jai Hind, Jai Shri Kedarnath. I am Preeti Negi from Rudraprayag District. This year, the Surya Devbhoomi Challenge is going to be held in April. Last year, in April 2025, this Surya Devbhoomi Challenge was also held. For the first time, it was organized by the Defense (Indian Army) in Uttarakhand. My results were very good and amazing; I was the winner in the female category.
This year too, I will try to join this marathon. I want to tell all of you to join this marathon this time in large numbers, participate, and enjoy it. My experience in this was very good and amazing, and I hope it will be good this time too. My efforts will be focused on ensuring it goes well this time as well.”

I request all the participants who want to participate in this to come for the darshan of Devbhoomi; the Indian Army is with you. I also participated in this last time. Great support was provided by the Indian Army and there were very good arrangements. You will feel very good after coming here. Thank you.”
