Author
Anam Khaleel is a student of class 12 from Bangalore. Her interest in writing and literature can be felt while listening to her spoken word poetry. We at CFC are very touched by the perspectives that young people like Anam are sharing. For some reason, we don’t often get a chance to see this side of them. Anam is also a student of fine arts and economics. She loves to paint.
