At the age of just two-and-a-half years, Siddhi Mishra took part in this adventurous journey accompanied by her mother, Bhawna Dehariya. Looks like the drive to conquer heights runs in the genes. It was on May 22, 2019, when Bhawna Dehariya climbed to the highest mountain peak in the world, according to a report by NDTV.

Siddhi is now the youngest girl in her age group to achieve the notable feat and reach the base camp of the mighty Mount Everest.
