Ganguly shared with the audience that he started his career as a teacher. ‘It’s a pleasant occasion and my regards to the school authorities. Before I can say anything about myself as a judge, I started my career as a teacher. So teachers, students and the education system are very dear to me. That was my first calling. Therefore I am immensely privileged and pleased to come here,’ he said.
