Fight back moment

Keep faith in almighty and yourself. Life gave me a lesson on how to fight back. I took u-turn from a partially paralyzed patient to a Motorbike rider. One morning I realized that slowly I am losing my sensation in my left arm and my facial motors, I was not able to express how I was feeling.

Gradually my mental situation was worsening. Thousands of questions were running in my mind. But I was determined to recover soon and was planning for the next. I feel that I am lucky enough that my prayers were granted by the almighty since I got a quick recovery in my health with some minor after-effects.

Bike and my Camera are my best companions. Until now I have travelled 4 North-Eastern states and BHUTAN on my bike. Now, I travel with many friends. I had always been enjoying riding Motorbikes in my young days while enjoying nature, so I decided to restart my life as a Rider and engrossed with nature.

His advice to all the youth of the country

"Do what you love, or Love what you do is the best policy to be a successful person. For every person, success has a different and personal definition. Take care of your definition and forget about what success means to others. Hard work and smart work both are equally important in life, and yes there is no short cut."
Secondly, "Dont get jealous of others, as we dont know his or her struggle and fight with life. Respect everyone, not just because of female or male. Everyone deserved respect the way you do.
Almost everyone wants to be independent and become an Entrepreneur at a certain phase of life, but I think before you start your train yourself, take your time or learn from very experienced people."

What he says about his future plans or any wish he wants to complete

There are good numbers of people in Assam who are having good technical skill and Innovative ideas, but due to lack of information and proper co-ordination, those talents are suppressed. So I want to work for them and make ASSAM a more Techno prone State. To see Assam as a Technical state in India is my dream and long term project. In my point of view, Electronics industries can play a major role in Assam state economy rather than big and polluting industries.
