The correct answer is option 1, Bachendri Pal. Bachendri Pal is the first Indian woman to scale Mt. Everest. She achieved this remarkable feat on May 23, 1984. Bachendri Pal hails from Uttarakhand, India, and was chosen to be part of the first Indian women`s Everest expedition led by Mohammed Shafi. She faced numerous challenges during the ascent, including adverse weather conditions and treacherous terrain, but her determination and resilience propelled her to the summit. Bachendri Pal`s achievement not only made her a national hero but also paved the way for other Indian women to pursue mountaineering. Her success continues to inspire women in India and around the world to break barriers and achieve their dreams.
