My Friends - Dhrithi Shreya Pariada , Shreyas S Das  accompanied me to the annual Newsmakers meet from Times Of India in association with soulful.

A learned nutrionist ,Ryan Ternand made me and my friends realize our guilt in taking and enjoying junk food and packed food. He also made us realise that the manufacturers of these products are scared to admit their own nutritional values any packed item displayed.

The Meet also provided shippets and tips on how to write down reports, reviews, articles etc. We are very proud  to part of this meet and I hope I will get a chance to be a part of it in the coming year.
