Dear Student,

Santosh Yadav is the only woman in the world to scale the Mount Everest twice in less than a year.

She was born in 10 October, 1967 in a very small village in India named Joniyawas of Rewari District in Haryana.

From a very young age Santosh began to live life on her own terms. She did not follow the traditional way of life like other girls in her village.

She wanted to get proper education. Therefore, she enrolled herself in a school in Delhi despite protests from her parents.
After finishing high school, she went to Jaipur to study at Maharani College and got a room in Kasturba Hostel.

While staying in Kasturba Hostel, she became fascinated with mountaineering.
She was so determined that she saved money and joined Uttarkashi?s Nehru Institute of Mountaineering.

In 1992, she scaled the Mount Everest to become the youngest woman in the world to do so.

She scaled the Mount Everest again the next year as a member of Indo-Nepalese Women?s Expedition.

She was honoured with the Padma Shri award by the Indian government in recognition of her achievements.

Hope this information clears your doubt.
Regards,
Priya Agrawal.
