As a housewife, mother, social worker, teacher and writer, she was a perfect woman who excelled in every field of her interest. She was a tireless reader too, reading biographies of great personalities like Mahatma Gandhi, Abraham Lincoln, Rabindranath Tagore and many great women who inspired her much. She made a sincere effort to follow them in practice too. She was a great admirer of Mahasweta Devi, Amrita Pritam and Parijat in the field of literature and was also idolized Mother Teresa and the pro-democracy leader of Myanmar, Aung Sang Suu Kii. She regularly read various national and international magazines and journals on wide-ranging subjects and used to share her knowledge with friends and with the readers through her writings. It is a great loss for Indian literature and society that a great talent was lost at a time when she was contributing to society richly in terms of both quality and quantity.
