Tinka Tinka has been constantly working towards prison reforms and in since last few years they have really managed to bring a lot of stories to the common people. The reforms done by Tinka Tinka is something very less people know about and even very less people have attempted it. The stories about prison inmates from Tinka Tinka book series Tinka Tinka Tihar, Tinka Tinka Dasna and Tinka Tinka Madhya Pradesh has its own feel. #tinkatinka #vartikananda #jail

Tinka tinka foundation has been constantly working toward reforms regarding the prisoners. It is absolutely beautiful how they lead such tasks responsibly for the betterment of prisoners. The prisoners and their children deserve a dignified life . And during this quarantine they have recommended such good stories and books which are very helpful for the youth. #tinkafoundation #bookrecommendations

Mass Media in a Changing World is the story of where the media came from, why they do what they do, and why those actions cause controversies. Learning digitally is a need of this generation. Due to this pandemic, it has been a huge loss to every industry as well as our educational system but Vartika Nanda is communicating with her students with this blog to make them more vulnerable for the future. Journalism is a great section if it has a proper guide to show them the correct path rather than playing politics and ruining the whole meaning of journalism. #varikananda
