A 22-year-old trekker, Vasu Farasi, has been missing for three days since embarking on the Madhyamaheshwar trek in Uttarakhand's Rudraprayag district. Police sources confirmed this development on Thursday, highlighting an ongoing search operation to locate him.

Farasi, a resident of Sahasradhara Road in Dehradun, ventured out on November 10 with a team of eight trekkers. Disturbingly, on that very day, he parted from his group and was subsequently reported missing.
