It was 1:30 P.M. A hairpin bend appeared on my path. I was inside my M3 being chased by other rivals. Just as I feared some moments ago, I committed a slightest mistake and was soon on the gravel. I decided not to give up. When I was trying to recover a call came from Lu. I had to go to a college to take part in Vision 2025. What to do? I had to shut down my computer and start.
2:30 P.M. Finally all of us assembled in a conference hall. Each of us got a notepad and a pen. The event was organized under the sponsorship of a big firm. As I expected it was a same old PowerPoint show. But it was about the future of our state. Initially they showed some facts. The aim was to find out three thrust sectors and find the solutions that will help Tamil Nadu becoming a dream place by 2025.
Many suggested the sectors that need to be improved. Agriculture, Infrastructure, Technology, Primary Education, Leadership, Industries, Media and so on. I too suggested one ‘balanced growth of all regions’. So, we finally short listed Technology and Primary education as our major issues. Our group discussed on Primary education and the analysis is shown below.
Main Problems: Lack of Awareness, Economic status, Cultural problems, Lack of Quality in school, Uninspiring mode of exams and syllabi.
Solutions: Awareness campaigns for children, parents as well as teachers, Fund collection from NGO’s, Schemes like ‘Play and Learn’ and ‘Earn and Learn’, Incentive revision for teachers, Setup a private organization to do quality checks, Modification of the existing syllabi, Inclusion of more practical knowledge in the course.
The first presentation was about technology that was in a weird format. After it was over some morons asked some stupid questions. Then our team had its chance. I presented the solutions at the end of our discussion under team Jagriti. Morons rose again. A damn dominant female raised some bullshit questions and other irritating fellow followed her. I managed. The idea I gave was “It is important to make Vision 2025 to be thought by all. Then all other things will come together”. Do you think this idea is worth changing the future of the world? You may not know. Neither do I. But it was definitely worth a Parker Pen which they gave me at the end of the meeting, which I believe was the best Idea of the day.

machan ,,, dont get me wrong .. some months back when not too many guys are not blogging , when ur blog may not have got the recognition it needed, u were almost crazy about blogging and u came with some great posts that made a lot of people like me to start a blog …
but what happened now ?
in this past 6 years i have seen u often take up some thing like mad and leave that half way through, and hte worst part of that is u will add that as an example to ur huge list of things that u have left half way and would say that is ur character , venkatraman..
no i think its time for u to change that and not to leave any thing in your life in half way …
certainly i have not done anything in my life so that i could advice a great person like u , but i certainly feel u r so humble enough to take some good thoughts from even an low potential guy like me
would love to see u here again
