Question

Read the Passage carefully :-

Did you meet God? This was a question Rakesh Sharma, The first Indian to travel into

space, often faced from admirers at home after he returned to Earth in 1984.

‘I would say, no, I hadn’t met God,’ he said. More than tree decades later, fact and

fiction blur easily with his modern-day fans when they meet Mr. Sharma, 68.

‘Now many young mothers introduce me to their kids and tell them, “This uncle has

been to the Moon.”

But Mr. Sharma can never forget the hysteria after he returned from space. He criss-

crossed the country returned from space. He criss-crossed the country and lived in

hotels and guest houses. He posed for pictures and gave speeches. Elderly women

blessed him; fans tore his clothes and sought autographs.

Politicians paraded him in their constituencies for votes; and authorities sent him on

holiday to a national park in searing 450C (1130F) temperatures.

‘It was completely over the top. It left me irritated and tired. I had to keep a smile on

my face all the time,’ he recounts.

Mr. Sharma wears his achievements and fame lightly. He joined India’s air force at 21

and began flying supersonic jet fightes. He had flown 21 Mission in the 1971 war with

Pakistan before his 23rd birthday. By 25, he was a test pilot. He travelled into space at

35, the first Indian and the 128th human to do so.

‘I had pretty much done it all before I went into space. So when the opportunity came,

I went along. It was that simple.’
