In the latest edition of the summit, famous IPS Manoj Kumar Sharma whose life and struggle influenced the critically-acclaimed film 12th Fail will join the session titled, "Courage and Compassion: The Incredible True Story of an Unlikely Hero."

The movie, based on Anurag Pathak’s 2019 non-fiction book of the same name, narrates the true story of Manoj Kumar Sharma, who went against all adds and cracked the prestigious UPSC examination to become an Indian Police Service officer.
