About
"Knowledge is the only entity in the world that must be sought for perpetuity" this is my postulate for my whole life. I was nominated by my alma mater Banaras Hindu University for representing India in World Festival for Youth and Students, held at Sochi, Russia in October 2017 and I qualified the National Eligibility Test (criterion to be an Assistant Professor in India). I completed my Master in Journalism and Mass Communication from Banaras Hindu University in June 2018.
