Answer:
a fixed idea about a particular type of person or thing, which is often not true in reality is called stereotype.
Explanation:
On May 16, 1984, a team of Indian mountaineers resting in an upper camp of Everest at an altitude of 24,000 feet heard an explosion in the distance. The time was 12.30am.
The next thing they knew was that an extremely heavy and cold mass was enveloping and gradually crushing them. It was an avalanche. Breathing was becoming difficult. The expedition would have taken a tragic turn had the rescue team not reached on time.
Almost all the members of the team were injured; fortunately, everyone survived. The team was rescued and moved to the lower camp. Owing to injury and fatigue, more than half of them were forced to abandon the climb. However, a 30-year-old member of the team refused to succumb either to the shock of nature's fury or to her minor head injury and went on to become India's first woman to conquer Everest.
“After we reached the lower camp, most members of my team decided to abandon the mission and go back to the base camp. But when our leader asked me I told him, if given a choice I would like to climb the mountain. I thought that since I did not die in this incident, I have no reason to step back. I remained positive. That decision was the turning point of my success story,” says Bachendri Pal, 62, head of Tata Steel Adventure Foundation, Jamshedpur.
Bachendri Pal
It has been over three decades since Pal achieved the feat, but it feels like yesterday as she describes her moment on top of the world, literally. “Everest means such extreme conditions and back then, mountaineers had no facilities. Climbing Everest was a matter of life and death. Besides everything else, we had seen a dead body on our way up. Even after we reached the peak, I couldn't stop worrying about getting back. Weather conditions that day were so good that we could spend about 45 minutes on the summit. I kept my small idol of Goddess Durga that my mother gave me on the summit and felt my copy of Hanuman Chalisa in my pocket; I just wanted a safe return.”
