Meeting with Director, Institute of Public Enterprise (IPE)

Met up with Prof R K. Mishra, Director, Institute of Public Enterprise (IPE), Hyderabad on 7 Feb 2015 and the moment I see him in his room, it was simply amazing, the aura that was spread around him was blue in color, it was so calm, bohot calm. A very humble man with extraordinary status.

I’m impressed, or to say i’m honored to be able to meet him in Hyderabad to discuss on the education plan we had and I must say: “Action speaks louder than word”. Just after we discussed our programme he immediately called his upper management to fix an appointment for us and I really appreciate his effort in it.

Great Power comes with Great Responsibilities

The stories that he share with us was a memorable one for me, the contribution that he gave in the education sector left me so small, but definitely an inspiration for me, i’m still young, and I hope that I have that kind of experience and exposure at his age or even younger.

This is the kind of experience i’m talking about, this is the kind of exposure i’m getting in India, and this doesn’t just stop here, it goes on and on, and I appreciate myself for making the right choice to start my career in India, making India a better place for education, and bringing the education sector to a very next and different level.

Jai Hind.

Appointment with Minister of Education for Andhra Pradesh

This is totally a new experience and exposure for me and it’s the first time I’m meeting a minister from India to discuss on the skills development of India.

As I walk into the hall for the appointment with my team, it was hell of an experience, the hall was huge and we aren’t the only one there, dozen of people are waiting there for their turn to meet the minister and i can sense some tension aura field inside. Everyone was looking at me as I entered into the hall, reason being I’m not a normal guy or to say I’m not Indian.

Eyes were staring, I wasn’t comfortable at all, it’s like ‘why are you here? It’s not possible, it can’t be’. As I entered the room, meeting the Minister, the situation kind of calm me down when the Minister smiled to us, it’s was so pleasant, so calm, like a father that smile to his own child for the first time.

This was the exposure I was talking about, an exposure you won’t get while staying in Singapore. The interaction with the Minister was a fruitful one, he shown interest in our programme and I can see that even he wants to make changes to India.

One thing I joined CG it’s not just to learn and experience, it’s what they are doing, just like what the vision of the company says:

Transforming Individuals and Building Nations through Education & Skills Development.

Congratulation

Congratulation to National Institute of Technology Rourkela for getting rank 1 under Edu-Rand Ranking.Come to think of it, it has been 3 years since I have step foot on this place and I can’t wait to get back to it in March 2015 handling the fifth time collaboration between Nitrkl and Ngee Ann polytechnic!

Jai Hind!
