A call to all the Indians to stop the bloodshed in Syria

A call to all the Indians to stop the bloodshed in Syria

Syria is undergoing a crisis and the things happening there are seriously against the basic rights of any human being – “Right to live”
Innocent people in Syria tried to do peaceful protests against the President to force him step down to save their country and countrymen. But power is the feeling which every human enjoys, but it mostly destroys. The protests have been there for 4 months now and the response of the authorities has been cruel and severe towards people.

According to Amnesty International’s research, the human rights violations committed by the Syrian security forces and army since mass protests began in mid-March include unlawful killings and torture. They appear to have been committed as part of a widespread - as well as systematic - attack on the civilian population and, in some cases, to amount to crimes against humanity.

To counter this and to ease the situation, Amnesty International has called on the UN Security Council to refer the situation in Syria to the International Criminal Court (ICC), to impose an arms embargo and to freeze the assets abroad of the Syrian President and his senior associates.

But till now the UN Security Council has been silent on Syria – failing to take action to help protect peaceful dissent in the country.

Some members of the Council have decided to solve the situation and have introduced a resolution on Syria which could be a first step towards a referral to the ICC. However, voting on the resolution is currently blocked by six other members. We believe that, three of those six, Brazil, South Africa and India, could be persuaded to change their position with sufficient international pressure.

India aspires to become permanent member of the UN Security Council which would be for the benefit of our country and our people and, as such, I believe that we have an increasing responsibility to try to bring an end to the violent crackdown in Syria. Please sign this petition to help ensure that Brazil, South Africa and specially India do not shy away from their responsibilities. As an Indian we need to put pressure on our government to change its position. Please be a part of it and do something for the country. This could be your few chances to do something for the common good.

Sign here to let the government hear your voice.

There is always light at the other end of the tunnel......

There is always light at the other end of the tunnel……
Problems in life…. A very sharp knife…
Most people think.. it’s a crappy life

Deep emotions… Extreme frustration
But still superficial consideration…

Responsibilities, confusion, obligations…
Are all life’s ramifications…

There is no one who is happy from the core…
Some have less problems and some have more…

Some blame others some blame themselves
But very few go deeper into their mind’s shelves

Is there a way…. That all the problems go away…
I still await that kind of a day…….

As that would make me feel alive…..!!!!
Some of us give up.. some of us battle…
But there are people like me who always believe….
There is always light at the other end of the tunnel…
It’s just the walk.. which is hard to survive……!!!!!

The First term of my MBA......

Run Run Run….. for the 8:30 class…! With just a water of glass….. !
breakfast extinct from my life..! MBA became my newly wedded wife…..!
young boy trying to make a mark...! but class participation was not an easy shark…!
Less sleep more work is the MBA’s welcome drink..! unsuccessful to make my sleeping hours shrink :P
One and half hours of each class seemed like a decade……! after a few days of the MBA's intemperate raid….!
Battle to be awake all the time..! was my new favorite rhyme……!
Group work was fun..! but classroom looked like a cream-less bun….!
Some of the lessons were interesting & conceptual..!! Others seemed unending & perpetual…..!
Assignments started pouring in...! the study box became my nearest kin…..!
Trip to rome was the greatest gift..!! And it was quite swift….!
Calcetto, aperitivo, wine and friends..! were my life’s latest trends……….!
Marketing, Strategy and Finance..! always made me go into a trance……!
The coffee machine takes years to blend..! I was always waiting for the classes to end….!
The schedule was packed with studies, assignments and presentations..!
But parties were always the MBA’s ramifications…….!
MBA is fun MBA is fun MBA is fun………..! I assure you no intended Pun :)

The onset of the MBA Journey.....

I have put my first foot across the doors of my MBA journey and things seem to be pretty new and different for me. It is the first time I am outside my own country and I feel lost sometimes as it’s difficult to survive in a European country like Italy without having a basic knowledge of their language. I know some basic Italian and am able to manage my stuff somehow.

Getting into an international b-school with a globally renowned program was like a dream come true for me and I came with the intention to extract as much knowledge I can and to transform myself into an improved person both on a personal and professional front. I got admits from two colleges - one from Simon school of Management (Rochester, NY) and the other was SDA Bocconi school of management (Milan, Italy). I had a tough choice to make, but finally after doing some analysis I chose SDA Bocconi over Simon.

The program here is a one year program including internship which makes the schedule quite tough and it’s really hard to cope up. Time is really flying by and I need to catch up as I spent my initial days just roaming around, meeting people and trying to adjust into the new city - fixing my house, my stuff etc. Now I really feel the need to pull up my socks and get into the real world of business. Every other day we have some company presentations and it almost takes up the whole day leaving a very little time to study. The main thing I believe is to prioritize things and make your schedule to be in time for things and not to miss out the important ones. One good thing about the place is that people here are very friendly and by saying this it reminds of a very sweet incident - One fine morning it was raining and I was getting late for school and I dint have an umbrella, so I decided to borrow it from the neighbor.... and in the evening there was a nice new umbrella with a chit on which it was written "A small gift from a sweet old lady who stays next door".... and I felt overwhelmed.......!

Most of the people in class look to be pretty much strong in terms of their experience and abilities, some are bankers, some are consultants...................................... But along with there are many fun people. One more great thing to mention here is the "Apertivo". It’s sort of a party where you just need to pay for the drinks and you get free food.... cool..!!! And every other day we have an apertivo for something or the other and its great fun. About the clubs there are many fun clubs like the Wine club who are most of the times busy in exotic Wine tasting Events, the Motor Club have great events like “the Ferrari driving experience”, “visit to the Maserati factory” etc. I joined the Management Consulting Club with a dream of getting into the consulting industry.

First term really went great and it was the time when everyone was trying to know people, making new friends, feeling the new MBA experience. People were divided into study groups and every group was having group lunches to be comfortable with each other and trying to know each other more than others because those were the people with whom we had to work with. Four of us moved into a really nice apartment in Milan and I loved the apartment, the only thing was that we had to share rooms.

Reaching to the morning 8:30 class was little bit of a trouble to me but I could somehow manage to reach there with my sleepy eyes and hastily dressed appearance. I did not attend the pre courses, so it was difficult for me to break into the groups of people which were already formed from the pre courses. But I had to know new people, new cultures and understand them. This was first time in my life when I came out of India and I was desperate to know about new countries about new people.

There were already many Indians in the class, 13 out of a class of 98 and it was not so difficult to make friends with the Indians though. I already had some because I almost talked to everybody over the phone or chat before coming here. I got some new friends and it was a nice experience for me. Although Milan turned out to be little disappointing as I had a fantastic image of the city in my mind, but it sometimes happens. When we expect a lot from anything, it always turns out to be a disappointment. That is mainly because we raise the bar of our expectations too high. The food was not as new to me as I knew about the Italian food from before but it was really different from what I tried before in India.

I was a little nervous in the beginning as almost all the people including the Indians were all like, they have travelled to different countries and all were like international people and I somehow felt little inferior when I compared myself with the others. But on the contrary it even gave me a feeling of an achiever of being there even though not so high in experience and other things. Honestly speaking I was proud of myself being there. We started going out meeting people, going to parties and always thinking about how to make friends with people from other countries. I was always trying to take the first step to get into the groups, trying to talk to people and things like that. I was worried about class participation, studying hard, attending all the classes and try to get most out of my MBA experience. This was the onset of the new experience of my life and the initial few days of my SDA Bocconi MBA experience…………..

My Goodbye Email at Onmobile Global Ltd.

Finally the time has come to say good bye to the Onmobile life
take all the learning and welcoming the new stage of life

good times, bad times, best times, worst times
its really hard to forget all the personal and professional rhymes.....

I entered the new job with passion coupled with apprehension
but the ambience at Onmobile relieved all the tension

listening to music and going outside with friends for tea & coke
was the perfect painkiller for the work pressure and deliverables' stroke......

complicated KPIs, KRAs, JIRA and appraisal structure
always made a perfect conjuncture

last minute changes and the bulk of deliverables kept work always on the fullest flow
can't avoid, can't delay, can't look for help as the promotions should always go!

never buckling under pressure and coordination are the qualities I instilled
like a raw chicken which has now been grilled......

Working in the team called business intelligence
It was a boon to my marketing knowledge and business sense

response & revenue report convulsions cladded with the review meetings
had a unique resemblance to the perdition greetings......!!

AMs, PMs and BMs always troubled with target and sales
"Mailbox Full" and "Birthday" were always the morning mails

less leaves, bad food and survival on maggi or burger with a shake
"Working from home" proved to be the best escape

intelligent promotions and perplexed analysis...
time to go home felt like a bliss..!!

At Onmobile, Curve of knowledge and experience takes a huge upturn
but the enablers are pro-activeness and willingness to learn...!!

With the enriching experience and memories in my heart
I feel sad as its time to depart
as it's time for me to put new things in my cart
but the experience at Onmobile has become an inseparable part.....!!!!
