Currently she is an officer in the Indo-Tibetan Border Police. She was a part of the nine-nation international climbing camp-cum-expedition to Nun Kun in 1989.
Yadav was awarded the Padma Shri in 2000.

Sulphuric acid

                                        Sulphuric acid Sulfuric acid  (alternative spelling  sulphuric acid ), also known as  oil of vitriol , is a mineral acid composed of the elements sulfur, oxygen and hydrogen, with molecular formula H 2 SO 4 . It is a colorless, odorless, and viscous liquid that is soluble in water and is synthesized in reactions that are highly exothermic. Its corrosiveness can be mainly ascribed to its strong acidic nature, and, if at a high concentration, its dehydrating and oxidizing properties. It is also hygroscopic, readily absorbing water vapor from the air.   Upon contact, sulfuric acid can cause severe chemical burns and even secondary thermal burns; it is very dangerous even at lower concentrat...
