Submission declined on 3 July 2025 by Qcne (talk). This submission's references do not show that the subject qualifies for a Wikipedia article—that is, they do not show significant coverage (not just passing mentions) about the subject in published, reliable, secondary sources that are independent of the subject (see the guidelines on the notability of people). Before any resubmission, additional references meeting these criteria should be added (see technical help and learn about mistakes to avoid when addressing this issue). If no additional references exist, the subject is not suitable for Wikipedia. If you would like to continue working on the submission, click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window. If you have not resolved the issues listed above, your draft will be declined again and potentially deleted. If you need extra help, please ask us a question at the AfC Help Desk or get live help from experienced editors.

Vanlallawmzuala Varte (born c. 1990), also known as Lza Varte, is an Indian

Varte is from Mission Veng, Aizawl, Mizoram.^[1] He is active in the Mission Veng Youth Adventure Club and serves as a leader within the Mizoram Cycling Association (MiCA), where he works to promote cycling and environmental awareness in his local community.^[1]

On 25 January 2024, Varte embarked on a solo expedition named Ride to Clean Air, supported by the Mizoram Pollution Control Board and organized under the Mission LiFE initiative.^[2] The campaign focused on advocating for clean air and sustainable living practices.^[6]

Over the course of 286 days, Varte cycled 17,043 km, covering all Indian states and Union Territories.^[2][3][6] His route included demanding terrains like the Umling La pass—the world’s highest motorable road.^[5] He recorded his longest single-day ride at 207.82 km, and reached a maximum speed of 68.8 km/h during the journey.^[5] During his tour, he faced extreme weather, illness, and diverse regional challenges, but also took pride in sharing Mizoram’s culture nationwide.^[2][6]

Varte’s journey included speaking at schools, planting trees, and participating in environmental events across the country.^[5][1][7]

His feat earned him the record for being the fastest person—and the first from Mizoram—to cycle across all Indian states and Union Territories, as certified by the India Book of Records.

Varte’s ambitious ride has inspired many across Mizoram and beyond to take up cycling and adopt eco-friendly habits.[1]^[3] He continues to work with youth groups and environmental organizations throughout Northeast India to promote a cleaner, greener future.^[6][7]
