I had never initially planned to become a lawyer. I was slightly apprehensive to carry the huge responsibility of being a Second-Generation lawyer. Since childhood, I was more inclined towards academics and wanted to be an educator. With that, I decided to pursue my Bachelor’s degree in Commerce from Daulat Ram College, University of Delhi.
