He likes to read books, play badminton and volleyball, watch documentaries on various social issues, and listen to Punjabi music. He is keen to be part of discussion and debate on various policies and social reforms of the present government. He is seeking to gain a holistic development which consists of improvement in his skills and overall personality along with academic knowledge of various subjects during his time at the Young India Fellowship.
