The dream of a class XII student from Mandi of interacting with Prime Minister Narendra Modi today remained unfulfilled as could not talk to him through video conference due to a technical snag.

Manisha Sharma, the only student to be selected from Himachal Pradresh, had prepared a list of questions for the Prime Minister but the opportunity of interacting with him eluded her.

"I wanted to talk about forest fires which swallowed the forests and reduce the green cover and also the problems of girls and wanted to know that what the government is doing to save the women from harassment," Manisha, a student of Senior Secondary School Randhara in outskirts of Mandi town, said.
 

She had recently visited Japan in connection with her project on measures for checking forest fires.

School Principal Hemraj Gopal said a great opportunity was lost and Manisha could not participate in the video conference due to some technical hitch.
