“We cross hundreds of people when we commute through the roads every single day. Each of these people have their own stories of problems, crisis, deprivation, denial and are thereby suffering which nobody has time to hear in their busy lives. It is for these powerless and voiceless people that a medium like journalism exists. People in the remotest parts of the country or the most prominent urban centres, women or lower castes being deprived, the downtrodden being oppressed, all have their own plight to narrate. A hunger for such stories of powerless people and an ever inquisitive nature makes my fervour for journalism stronger every passing day. I know it’s easier said than done but ‘if I never try, I’ll never know…”
