The above statement aptly proved by Capt. Navin Gulia and that too not once but every time the challenge arose, Capt Navin Gulia’s courage and determination to fight the odds arose higher. After the strenuous training at NDA and IMA, just when he thought he was going to achieve a lifelong dream, he got accidently pushed over in the final competition of obstacle race right before his Passing Out Parade….It shattered his dream of serving the forces and left him with a 100% paralysed body and all he could command apart from his will power was his eyes… he rose from the ashes when the doctors had lost all hope… Confined in his bed he trained himself to fight back… Every moment being a battle and he, the lone soldier, fought back so hard that even destiny dropped on its knees and surrendered
He wanted to achieve the impossible and he did when he drove for 55 hours non stop in a modified SUV to Marsimik la the highest motorable pass in the world, famously known as the death trap located 1232 ft higher than Mt Everest base camp.
