Young, ambitious, bookaholic and fun that's what I, Ipsita Panda stand for. I am a ninth grader from Visakapatnam. I am someone who I believe has been destined to convince the world that science not only destroys but also makes the environment; this is proved by my aim to become a scientist. Books are my source of rejuvenation. Music defines my soul and dance, my passion. I am committed towards preserving various types of heritage of the country both tangible and intangible for the future generations to see. As a preserver and protector of the environment, I take part in activities like heritage walks, protection of Buddhist monuments, plantations and no doubt my favourite sparrows. I believe that one should feel to realize the importance and involve in making others feel.
Ipsita Panda from Visakha Valley School, Visakhapatnam is talking about Sparrow during an event organised by INTACH.
