Fast forward to this day, she is currently the Head Librarian at BCL, along with....

....managing the Library and all its activities, she is also preparing for government competitive exams, giving in to her love for education, and aiming for success. Prachi has grown into a woman who is working hard towards her dream. Sometime back she didn't even step out of....
