Hello Soutrik and welcome to the community.

Please try not to top-post and favour interleaved style. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Posting_style#Interleaved_style

While I think the link you stated above is a good resource, I think the My First Contributions page is a good resource to get started, after which you can find a microproject to work on, push to the mailing list to understand how to send patches and the review process. I can see Deveshi Dwivedi has already suggested this to you.

Thanks Abraham.
