Tata’s Nano – Bengal’s lose is Gujarat’s gain

The exit of the small wonder car 'Nano' from Singur, West Bengal, according to many, will give Bengal a 'troubled state' image. Since the announcement of Tata's Nano project in Singur, the local mafia farmers backed up with the likes of Mamata and her Trinamul Congress Party started opposing this revolutionary project; claiming that the Tatas along with the Government of West Bengal have taken away local farmers' land without their complete will and at...

NCrypted Campus Recruitments

We at NCrypted recently went on a campus recruitment hunt at Saurashtra University and Atmiya Institute of Science & Technology, Rajkot (Gujarat, India). I think campus recruitment process is better compared to other orthodox hiring mediums such as newspaper advertisements, job portals, internet forums, job fairs etc. Here you go to that very particular segment which has the pool of candidates that you require. However, you will need to garnish them with your dedicated training...

How pathetic could journalism can get?

Sujata Anandan wrote on 'The Oped Page' of The Hindustan Times, Mumbai on May 02, 2007 something like below…excerpts: "how bloody could patriotism get?" "Modi's popularity proves that Gujaratis think differently from the rest of India. Let us hope that the fake killings will shame them enough to boot out the likes of Modi and Vanjara" "…..at some point of time the people of Gujarat will be shamed enough to boot out the likes of...

Who am I – The Discovery of a 21st century man!

During my engineering days at Bangalore I used to go to the nearby Hare Krishna Hare Rama temple of ISKCON. An engineer Swami (yes most of the sanyasins there have a professional background) held a class on 'Gita' one fine Sunday. We were around 20 in this spiritual classroom. All with diverse backgrounds, religion (there were Hindus, Jain, Christians, two Sikhs and a Muslim, too), caste, profession and background. Swamiji then started the lecture by...

Here is why Narendra Modi won 2007 Gujarat Elections

Sujata Anandan has again written in her 'The Oped Page' in Hindustan Times, Mumbai edition (December 12, 2007) why Gujaratis should feel ashamed of themselves! I don't understand for the main reason why is she so much after making the community to be ashamed of themselves for voting Modi! Anandan thinks she is writing something smart which will impress likeminded Gujaratis and others from the rest of the Indiawho vote against Modi! Well, she's fooling...

Business Ethics and Our Indian Education System

We are not here to define what is management. We are here to put management in practice! There exist a load of hypes about the ethics in management, but very less among them talk about the real thing. We should do that and we should do this - what a crap! People talk about management but these talks are never applied. Theories can't help you win a serious game, you should be practical. Apply your...

Delivering an Effective Public Speech

'When I speak, even angels listen to me! 'Coz my words are worldly acknowledged and no soul in this earth can d-e-n-y my superiority over it!' Grrrh, now that was something heavy to digest. Looks like that funny acting guy in 'Sansani' popping up every evening and warning every citizen of India. Anyway, a friend of mine just dropped by explaining how horrible his presentation went last evening. He fears he might lose the potential...

Affairs of Marketism

This is an article I wrote back in February 2004 with inputs from my uncle Kapil Pandya.---- The Clinton-Lewinsky Affair The media published the affairs of Bill Clinton and Monica Lewinsky very highly and that much advertisement they never published about Clinton's presidency job. The media used the name of the personality and did the marketing to sell their news!Lewinsky was a worker secretary at the White House of the USA and step-by-step by using...

Troy – The Western Mahabharata

"What is written here is everywhere else and what is not written in here is nowhere in the world!" I remembered these legendary words from our all-time best epic 'The Mahabharata' penned by Muni Ved Vyas when I saw this great movie recently. I went to the library and read the Greek epic on which the story of this film is based - The Iliad. It's one of the two epics of Greece (Iliad and...
