He was designated as the President of Akhil Bhartiya Vidyarathi Parishad. Being a writer was his dream. He did what he believed, excelled or not, a veiled hidden story about to be unveiled. Thinking beyond a particular genre, he penned down about something or anything, which evokes him less as an individual and more as a human.
