With the global technology-based economy, you young achievers are positive role models for your peers and for generations to come.”
Apoorva Srivastava, said that it was a privilege to be present on such a momentous occasion and added, “Today, we celebrate these 50 young individuals who have made India and Canada proud. But let us also acknowledge their families as their support has been instrumental in their success. The featured individuals in this book will continue to inspire the younger generation and make a lasting impact.”
