Chaudhry; the people featured in this book have been at the forefront of elevating India's educational landscape. Through their personal stories, big decisions, leadership styles, and life lessons, Pencils and Purpose sheds limelight on leaders who have dedicated their life's purpose to elevate India's educational landscape.
