Hey,

> The first task is to implement approve/decline mentor

**The scenario for the implementation is given below:**

Users can apply as a mentor for a program. As admins, we will short list few mentors for the program. Therefore it is essential to have a feature to approve/decline in the MENTOR\_VERIFICATION\_PERIOD.

**The wireframe is as follows:**

**Approach**

- I’ll be using this endpoint to achieve the task where the appoved/declined state would be fetched and edited

`PUT /{id}/state`

- I’m hoping to use the [switch](https://ant.design/components/switch/) component as it would give a clear idea on the two states.
