Hi Sakshi,

Definitely, start with bug fixing, pick a project, try to contribute back
some low-hanging fruits. Feel free to join the project's irc channel and
ask for help, OpenStack is an open community with really helpful members,
and we always welcome new people. I suggest to start with a smaller
project, where you can learn the basics, for example Storyboard contains
some python too and a small dev team. Try to build up a trust, participate
in regular online-meetings, show your commitment. It is always easier to
make some visibility in a smaller team.

Regards,
  Marton Kiss
  OpenStack Ambassador
