I’ll ask you to love the country and its people, groom yourselves in such a way so that you could become the future leaders of the country or even become the Prime Minister, you’ll have to have such self-confidence.” State Minister for Women and Children Affairs Meher Afroze Chumki spoke at the programme as a special guest, held with a class V student Upama Biswas in the chair.
