An avid debater, writer, and orator, I am currently studying in Royal Global School, Guwahati, Assam, under a scholarship program. I have been in the public speaking sphere for more than 6 years now starting early at the age of around 12. I have been to several MUNs and have been to the UN Headquarters representing India.

Someone too much into debating, my primary passion is to public speaking. No matter what the situation is, my love for the stage is unparalleled. Apart from the that, I'm someone of an explorer, who enjoys trying new dishes, traveling new places and meeting new people. If you do the know where you're coming from, you can't appreciate where you're going. This thought often provokes me to question our misconception of equating modernization with westernization. It is my strongest passion to educate today's youth to have a modernist approach not by imitating the west, but by holding on to the roots.

All it takes in life is to side the positive and to not worry about the dark side.

I've been a part of another tedx event this year in Sivsagar, namely, TEDxYouth@Borpukhuripar 2018. This will be my 2nd tedx event this year.

Writing songs. I believe I can write and compose music very well, even though I don't have any experience in that field.
