    Interesting even though Beauty got a higher score that Mecatronics placed 10th last time India was 1 in beauty !
    Must focus on improving scores .

    Euro Skill participation score is worse. Participated in Mobile Robotics, Mechatronics & Visual Merchandising. All positioned at the bottom. Until change in experts is resisted these results will be predictable & consistent !!

Indian Sports – All Undies Down

Sports have been making real great news since past one year. Be it Commonwealth games or Cricket or any other thru their respective sports associations. CWG once again hogged the limelight with all its justified massively escalated expenditures, featuring exceptionally talented personalities who have extensive experience in playing the game. Yoga and walking is also considered sports by few!! Well it’s about playing game to ones advantage and to win, for country/state/club or self.

Change being constant phenomena, IPL did a massive turnaround in commercial terms and getting glamour quotient to the forefront. Which created desires to enjoy the power of position, visibility thru the game and receive associated numerous tangible/non-tangible benefits. This leads to the thought sports & sportsman being secondary. Basically, piggyback Cricket to have time of your life. Ride on someone else’s success with next to nil contributio...

Legendary Actor Sushant Singh Rajput : A Tribute

Legendary journey of actor Sushant Singh Rajput has been cut short, but has set an example and inspired many to be vocal about awful culture prevailing in the film industry. Yet his untimely demise crafted by few shameless and morally corrupt deemed owners of film industry failed to control outburst from professionals across industries, sectors and age groups. The mental agony Sushant suffered is experienced by most of the professionals who are talented, honest, believe in growing on merit, high on integrity, work professionally, refuse to compromise, ready to compete, take on challenges and speak the truth. While on the other hand, brigade of privilege mediocre individuals thrive due to invisible – yet predictable - hand of top management or are related to some influential parent/bureaucrat/family.   Having gone through similar experience while playing professional cricket (selectors, office bearers etc), working in industry association and during specialized projects...
