First, I would like to say it’s a privilege to have worked with Dr. Manna on a prestigious project named SWAYAM of Ministry of Human Resources and Development, Govt. of India. His academic achievements and awards speak volumes about his skill and talent. For me, ‘Integrity’ and ‘Dr. Manna’ are synonyms, Dr. Manna is a man of his words!! He is always focused on outcomes, never gets distracted by the noise around him. He finds happiness in simple things, like catching-up friends during his leisure time for a cup of green tea and make time for near ones even during a busy day schedule.
