Hello Souvik,
Am glad you want to pursue journalism as a career. Do you have what it takes to be a great journalist?
1. The passion, the ability to make and keep the right contacts.
2. Curiosity. Persistence. Toughness.
3. The ability to grasp the big truths with the humility to let them go again when the facts don't fit, don't hesitate.

Good morning Sanjeev,
Wow, that's really great to know you that you are following your dream.
You can further do MBA or PGDM from institutes of mass communication or try forwarding your CV to other big news channels. But before approaching them you need to sharpen your skills. So, it will be better to join a B-school which would help you to enhance your skills.
All the best.

Dear Savita,
I would suggest you to go for BBA in hotel travel and tourism after completing your 12th. There are many institutes offering course in this field like Jamia Millia Islamia, SKYLINE Business School, JIMS - Jagannath Institute of Management Sciences, UTM Shillong etc. All are good but UTM is what I would like to recommend you as it is a very good university offering this program and Shillong itself is a tourist destination you can learn a lot here. University is quite renowned for this program so if you can make out to this, then it would really be very good for your career.

Dear Yash,
Nearly everyone loves to travel, and many of us wrote a really great story in Junior High, so often people feel it would be easy to become a travel writer. But to me, it is like entering the ring in Madrid's Plaza de Toros de Las Ventas to face a raging bull, waving, instead of a cape, Hemingway's “truest sentence you know”.
