Where Courage And Heart Conquered The Past Which Made Strong Individual Believer!

My father passed away when I was just 5 years old. For my upbringing, my mother started her own business of selling garments. She taught me how to live contently with meagre resources, even when one is not favored by luck. Though I saw poverty from close quarters, my mother ensured that my upbringing was comfortable. Unfortunately, I lost her at the age of 11. My world came to a stand-still, and I had absolutely no clue as to what was happening to my world. Subsequently, the issue of my guardianship turned out to be a matter of much confrontation between my mother's family and father's family. Eventually, my elder uncle(mama) and aunt(mami) took over my guardianship and since then, they’ve treated me like their own son. They ensured that I got good education and have supported me in all walks of life. And I really owe them everything for always supporting me.

What It Means To Be A South Indian At XLRI Jamshedpur

Having spent the entirety of my life in the Southern states of the country, travelling to XLRI meant crossing the invisible wall into the East. 6 hours after boarding the flight, I landed at Calcutta. I could barely differentiate between Hindi and Bengali. Thanks to the relentless efforts of my parents, despite my best interests, I had learned the syllables of the Hindi language. I shall call the Hindi that I know ‘Uber Hindi’ - for that’s the bare minimum required to survive a chatty uber driver (Haan bhayya, teek hai etc.).
