MEET THE COMPLIANCE COMMITTEE
Tanistha Ghosh
Editor
Apart from finding her randomly pausing on streets gawking at cars, she’s mostly found with all her belongings on the bed, doing all kinds of sedentary chores being in one damn place. She neither messes up with her top priority nor compromises on it which is her most favourite amongst the rest- her sleep schedule. Surfing through dictionary and occasionally using sesquipedalian words as jolt is her another trait. The day she completes her whole meal without complaining, she will attain nirvana.
