While researching, writing a thesis and attending the viva-voce, Srivastava battled ill health, exertion and a minor heart attack with a lot of guts and gumption.

Despite wanting to pursue further studies, Srivastava completed his BSc (chemistry, geology, and geography) from Banaras Hindu University.
