UPSC topper Faisal exhorts youth to dream big

Dream big and let not failures deter you from marching forward till you achieve success." Shah Faisal, the civil services topper this year, said this on the key to success to youth who assembled here last evening to hear him. "Indian youth should not be afraid of dreaming big. Failures happen but learn to overcome them. In my case they ignite me to go forward," he said during an interactive session with youths including Kashmiri students.

The topper, who hails from Jammu and Kashmir was felicitated here by a city-based NGO 'Sarhad', for his success in all UPSC exam. Sanjay Nahar, president of the NGO, said the organisation had been working in Jammu and Kashmir to build cultural bridges between the valley and rest of the country.
