Hello again! The first guest in this new season of When I Was 13 is someone who has never stopped learning.\nWe meet Col (Dr) Manorama Bordoloi who joined the Indian Army as a doctor in the Armed Medical Corps during the 1971 India-Pak war. Even after retiring from the army in 2005, Col Bordoloi studied for her fellowship and worked with an NGO.\nAs I speak with Manu Ma'am about the time when she was 13 in Tirupati in 1962, we are also joined by Manu ma'am's two daughters.\nSo lets hop onto our time machine.
