Why I am here?  I am a graduate in management science but opted for the career in journalism because of my interest. I don't have high and vague ambitions like changing the system or the world that we are attached to. I like the way news people are considered as better informed citizens. Everyone has goals in life ; short term and long term. My long term goal is to open a media institute so joining this institute became my short term goal.

Why I am here?  I came here to learn the use of media's reach. While doing my physiotherapy I felt the poor did not know what treatments they needed.

Why I am here?  Before coming to NDTVMI, I was working in a BPO as a mentor. But I always felt, its not what I want to do in life. My habit of reading the newspaper and watching news inspired me to get into journalism.

Name: Priyanka Pant

Location: Kuwait

Education: BA in English and legal Studies

Why I am here?   In one word, the reason I am here is: India. Having grown up in Kuwait and Boston, I had always wanted to come back to the country my parents had left in the 70s. Armed with a degree in English and Legal Studies and with a ten-month stint at a Kuwaiti newspaper, the move to broadcast seemed like the next logical step. The mix of discussion-based workshops and hands on training has been the greatest part of the BTP.

Why I am here?   There was no doubt in mind that I always wanted to be in the media.News is about the world around us which is ever evolving, changing and moving on. There are exciting things happening every minute and to be able to capture them into stories that find value in people's lives, is something I wanted to do. The process of how an idea born in the mind can be transformed into reality through various techniques of scripting, camera, editing etc always excited me!! Like Spiderman says "with great power comes great responsibility." and this holds true for the media. I am blessed to have this power and hope to use it responsibly to do my bit to bring positive change.
