I think everyone of us in our own way, whatever way we can do, start a good day, give a little bit to other living beings which are sharing our world.”

“I am not at all nervous everyday like I said is a challenge. I never knew that what is around the bend, so I am sure there must be something left for me, that is why I have been called back to my motherland and to my people. Lets see how it goes. I am sure there is no road which is a smooth road, there are ups and downs and you take each day as it comes. A warrior never loses heart, you keep fighting for it,” Kriti Debbarma added.
