With the dawn of 2019, the year 2018 is now past. A lot happened in the world during the year of 2018 – My favorite actress Deepika Padukone got married :-). North Korean leader Kim Jong-un shakes hands with U.S. President Donald Trump. Flying officer Avani Chaturvedi scripted history by becoming the first Indian woman to fly a fighter aircraft solo.
Now, enough about the world. Here are some of the key events and moments happened with and around me.
