Pavan started playing basketball only two years ago as there were no tennis courts in school. He did, however, take to the racquet sport earlier. “I started playing when I was around six, simply because my mother used to play tennis in her younger days – I could barely hold a racquet at the time.” And it didn’t take long from him to win his first tournament either.

In 1990, one fourth of my cabinet left with the man who challenged me for the presidency of the party [and lost]....
