Air Traffic Controller

Bipasha Hrangkhawl hails from Rangamura village, a distant tribal hamlet in Khowai district, 50 km from Agartala. Though she hailed from a small village, her family took her education seriously and admitted her in one of few best schools in Tripura.Her ambition to become an Air Traffic Controller started long back at the age of 10 when she used to watch the popular Nat Geo documentary series ‘Air Crash Investigation’ on television with her father. As her father Bijoy Kumar Hrangkhawl, 51, was an employee of the state Power Department, and had a transferable job, Bipasha got to study in several missionary schools at Khowai, Dhalai and West Tripura districts. She completed her graduation from Konkan Gyanpith College of Engineering at Maharashtra, where she earned Bachelor in Engineering (B.E) degree in Electronics and Telecommunications
