DIALOGUE WRITING: INTERVIEW OF SANTOSH YADAV, THE MOUNTIANEER
Answers
Answer:
Had she not been a mountaineer, Padmashri award winner Santosh Yadav (48) would have been an environmentalist. She was the first woman to climb the 29,035 feet high Mount Everest twice, in 1992 and 1993, and the first woman to climb it from its Kangshung face. Ms Yadav, a former Indo-Tibetan Border Police officer, is passionate about nature.
In Mumbai to deliver the second annual Radhika Rajan Leadership Lecture at IIT-Bombay, she urged students to be true to nature, not as a virtue but out of necessity. With examples from her life including life-threatening incidents, Ms Yadav wove in many lessons for the students, including some that were philosophical and others that ran contrary to an IIT student’s life. She exhorted them to not be competitive, sleep by 9 pm and wake before dawn, avoid studying at night, remember everything learnt from teachers, accept situations and face them tactfully and surrender graciously with faith when you have no option.
Above all, she asked them to be patient and positive. “If you yearn for something without wistfulness but with happiness and faith, it comes to you. That’s what pulled me through every situation and kept me going is good health. That comes from the state of mind,” she said.
