I studied Science with Chemistry Honours in my Bachelors from Bijoy Narayan Mahavidyalaya, Hooghly, West Bengal. After its completion, I took up a managers course in the paper industry from MSKVIB(Maharashtra State Khadi & Village Industries Board). Along with this, I also completed my City and Guild of London Institution Exam for pulp and paper making.
