"I started my journey from scratch in the education enterprise, not knowing what the future holds for me — but I wanted to bring change to the education system by transforming the school curriculum, which hasn't changed in the past 150 years. Initially, I faced stiff resistance, but when our visionary PM Mr. Narendra Modi came up with the same innovative hybrid schooling approach in the nation's educational policy, I felt elated and motivated enough to thrive incessantly."
