What is United Nations Pageants all about?
United Nations Pageants is a broad pageant. It has Mr, Miss, Mrs categories, along with Mr teen and Miss teen. This pageant is not just about beauty, but also about reaching out to the less fortunate. It teaches all the participants to use the platform to help others and make a difference in everyone’s lives.

What is the most memorable moment from the pageant that stands out from the rest?
The most memorable moment in the pageant was the day that we went to Balmagie primary school and we cooked for more than 700 children. The excitement and joy of having food served to them with love was evident in every child’s face. This was an amazing experience, not just for me but for all the participants.
How did you best promote India and Assamese culture at an international platform like this?
We had a National Costume round where I wore Mekhela Sador and during Talent competition, I sang a hindi and an assamese song, and this is how I helped promote India and Assam at the pageant!

How has your family shaped your aspirations?
All the credit for my success goes to my family, especially my husband. They have always encouraged me in every step and to work hard.
What advocacy do you want to promote to the society?
I have a belief that together we can do wonders, so I want to request everyone to come together and work towards the betterment of the society. Let us all join hands and reach out to the less fortunate.
