91FM and VividhBharti

FM has revolutionized its importance. I remember those days when my mother used to tune in RADIO solely for the purpose of BBC Hindi and people felt this slightly out of date. But gradually over last 4-5 years the RADIO world has changed and you will find mini (micro) radio sets very common.
In my childhood days I used to watch those part of movies which had lot of fight scenes. I simply disliked usual scenes and long conversations were simply bore. Then with time I got interested in VividhBharti which means to me complete melody. The most pleasant time hour in my undergraduate college, BIT Sindri, were sitting on my chair, doing something and hearing those eternal songs. I really salute people at VividhBharti for their great work. When I came here in IIITb, I found many things to entertain me. One is obviously my dearsome laptop with almost every time net connectivity and thus eventual connection to music webistes. However again the RADIO object got my attention and again it meant sole entertainment for me. For sometime I started watching TV but then again it is not my cup of tea. TV is very hard to handle considering the way they want to entertain you. However this time my RADIO companion is not only VividhBharti but 91FM also. Still VividhBharti has edge in mine perspective as the songs and the presentation makes my soul feel enlightened. FM is also good but ROSHAN is no longer anchoring on RADIO FM here in Bangalore and rest anchors do not appear so closer to ones domain of thought. They are good, but their emphasis is certainly less than VividhBharti.
Anyway one cause of writing this note was because of one of the VividhBharti program which broadcasted all of my favourite songs today. Government, please never privatise VividhBharti.

Praying for "love"

Dear Love, I am sitting beside you. I know you are ill for several days. Your health looks miserable and many a times you were not able to respond. I have been busy in my work, and could not take care of yours. I am feeling really bad and guilty for my behavior. I remember those moments when we were talking, laughing and enjoying every moment of our life. Watching your pale face I am feeling sad and disheartened... It was almost two years back when we met. I came to this place ( IIITb ) alone, with none of my old friends with me. No one was here with whom I could talk, share my thoughts and was feeling as if I am in desert. True, it is that there were folks around me, but effectively, even then, life was dry and relentless. In those dark moments I met you. Initially you were unresponsive in many contexts, but gradually I came to know lot of things about you. Believe me, at the very first sight I got enchanted to you. You were the real fashionista, always wearing in black embroideries c...

Certain Chaos

The problem of India is that it loves chaos. Whenever there is need of ideas, thoughts and insight; the tendency is to go in all directions, which finally locks the situation. I am talking about reservation. I have been watching this whole issue for last 3 weeks and it seems that no one is in mood to study this whole problem (no one means, people who are in action.) We are living in the time when we don’t give much attention to our thoughts and quickly put the points coming to our mindset. Considering the current situation of employment, global scenario, it has been hard to think for me that any student revolution will occur in our country. Last time the country saw any student revolution (at such a big level) was during emergency and then before that, during Quit India Movement. The major student fraternity of India is now days suffering from unemployment. Conventional academics, like science and arts, are not getting their importance. Since technical people, somehow get the grip over...

Is Education becoming too costly ... ? Part 3

Economy, Education and The Balance -- Consider the expenses when one studies for M.B.B.S degree at Private Medical colleges. Based on common information, it seems to be any thing between 10Lac to 30Lac rupees. If we add expenses for MD degree, this will come close to 50Lacs. With such a huge investment over studies, it is likely that the degree holder will look for smart returns. Clearly opening door gates of medical education on the basis of huge expenditure is not good for society. Another thing that I have observed over the years is Industry and Institute interaction. If the bias of Industry is towards education, then things are in balance. The concerned student will have strong foundation which will help him in future to build his career. However because of the economic interest of companies, involvement of teachers in financial benefits and prime interest of students in employment, the whole education process gets severely damaged. Economy and Education should have a balance, a...
