I am Jigyasha Gupta. Born and brought up in the steel city Bhilai, which also houses the 2nd biggest steel plant of Asia. I am a Computer Science graduate from one of the pioneer engineering colleges of the state- Bhilai Institute of Technology, Durg. In my free time, I love to meditate, read and cook. This is my humble contribution to giving back to the state which is doing a lot and has done a lot.
