New Delhi [India], April 23:<\/strong> On World Book\u00a0Day, \u00a0we\u00a0spoke with Megha Singh\u00a0Nandiwal\u00a0about why learning should be a daily practice and how books \u2014 and life beyond them \u2014 shape leaders. \u201cI don\u2019t think learning can ever be restricted to a day,\u201d she says. \u201cIf World Book Day stands for anything, it\u2019s a mindset\u2014curiosity, humility, and continuous growth. And that has to be lived every day, not celebrated once a year.\u201d<\/p>\n

For Nandiwal, learning extends well beyond printed pages. \u201cIt lives in conversations, feedback, failures, and the willingness to stay open,\u201d she says. \u201cThe more we learn, adapt, and stay honest, the better we become\u2014not just as professionals, but as people. And that naturally shapes the environments we build.\u201d She also highlights leadership\u2019s multiplier effect: \u201cThe higher the position, the greater the responsibility to stay grounded, because your thought process doesn\u2019t just guide decisions\u2014it influences people.\u201d<\/p>\n

Rooted in Jaipur\u2019s literary traditions, Nandiwal recalls a childhood steeped in books. \u201cI am from Jaipur and literature is in our roots. I grew up reading books, and that\u2019s usually how our summer vacations used to go \u2014 I have cherished those memories.\u201d She adds that her family\u2019s heritage shaped her worldview: she is the great-granddaughter of Durga Lal Nandiwal, a figure credited with shaping parts of Jaipur, and part of one of the city\u2019s most prestigious lineages.<\/p>\n

When asked which book has most influenced her, she names the Ramayana and describes its enduring power. \u201cI don\u2019t see it as a story of gods or history\u2014I see it as a mirror,\u201d she says. \u201cIt asks you uncomfortable questions: What would you have done? Would you choose duty over love? Would you stand by your word even when it costs you everything?\u201d For her, the Ramayana\u2019s strength lies in perspective: every character feels right in their own context, and that complexity is what makes it real. \u201cIt\u2019s not a book you finish; it\u2019s a book you grow into. And every time you come back to it, it shows you a different version of yourself.\u201d<\/p>\n
