The Three year of Bachelor hood at Nasik
“An Engineer Is Not Skilled Enough to Be a Craftsman He is Not clever Enough to be a Manager He is Not Learned Enough To Be a Scientist An Engineer is Required To Be Blamed For short Comings of Scientific Procedures and Methods.
Today also I feel that which working as an L.P.G. distributor for last thirty years the definition hold good for me.

Completion of Engineering a Dream Come True
Out of the six brothers and sisters the elder sister Rekha Completed is Master Degree in Literature from Rajnandgaon, I was in the final year of Mechanical Engineering. Mukesh did well up complete his graduation Hemant also made some trials and errors with his advance studies. Basant completed his Bsc and so Renu her post graduation. Overall, all of us received our education despite the constraints in our family.
As mentioned in this blog I was seeing my bright future so I concentrated on my studies in the final year keeping aside the exa curricular activities. The drawback of the annual system was a student had to contrite on all the eight Subjects along with the practical at a time unlike the present semester system any way I prepared well for the exams.
It was probably first week of July 1975 I am not recalling the exact date on which my results came. As I was having only the hint that with in two- three days time the result might come I used to go daily the bus stand where the business from Raipur used to bring the news Paper the other communication facilities were not available those days. I was full conscious about my success in the examination but not sure about the percentage I would get. Finally The day come after reading about the headlines of result in the Navbharat I searched for my roll number in the first Division list of the mechanical Engineering final year result, I will not be able to express my feelings today what I felt after finding my roll number in the first division list I rushed home with the news paper touched feet of my parent and told them about my results we were all in tears the tears of pleasure the tears one gets after achieving some thing and making the Dream Come True.

The first Vocational Training in Engineering
Coming back to our stay and training at Kanpur as Mama and his family of four daughters were living in a small room at Kanpur it was very difficult for us to stay there even other wise the HAL factory was based at Chakeri very far off from P road, we decided to shift to a locality called Lal Bangla in rented room. It was a Muslim family of one of a worker of HAL Kanpur who gave us a Paying Guest accommodation. It was not a very family of very high standards but we could adjust ourselves there for five weeks.
The HAL Kanpur manufactured HSA Hocker Sidley Aviation 747 aircraft In the decade of 1970-80 It was more than mediocre technology of air craft manufacturing. We were given training initially in the drawing and design department and later on in the different department stage wise. The Fuseloge (the Centre portion of the air craft) The Nose (the front portion) the Tail (The back portion) The body of an air craft is basically fabricated by special alloy of aluminum with two layers and using some soft material in between to make the aircraft should proof for the passengers sitting inside. The number of seats 747 used to have was around 100. The autopilot system, the electronic controls in the cockpit were very amusing for us that time and that training imparted a real practical knowledge and application of engineering.
We use to come to the city frequently particularly in the weekends we also saw some movies with my cousins there Kanpur is very famous for its tanneries and leather market that is why we made some purchasing of footwear and came back to our home towns after successful completion of training Continued in next Blog

Forth year of Engineering the Sight of Future
The forth year of engineering started with a very exciting note that yes the future is visible I started seeing myself contributor in Nation Building National Security. I am not going in the details of the engineering subject of fourth year there were the entire general subject which are taught in the fourth year courses today in the 2nd semester of third year or first semester of fourth year. As I mentioned in my earlier blogs that I was very keen to join the armed forces. In the beginning of this session there was are interview conducted by the Navy which was University Entry Scheme under this scheme the technical officers for Navy were selected, called for the Service Selection Board examination and if they were selected they were allowed to continue with the education with the condition of joining the force after completing the engineering degree. I was selected in the interview and later on in the month of January asked to face the Services Selection Board Roorkee. I am remembering the month of January clearly because while coming back from the Roorkee and catching train from Delhi to Rajnandgaon via Nagpur I stopped for one days at Delhi it was 26th January 1974. The services selection Board have got their own well established system of selecting officers for the armed forces it makes all kind of test the Physical Psychological Group Discussion Leadership of the candidate Any way I was not amongst the successful candidate as there was only one selected out of the three batches of ten each in the group. That fellow was from Bengal. Any way I enjoyed watching the Republic Day parade at Delhi near India Gate with a feeling of envy to see NCC cadets marching for which I was selected in the initial stages and could not make to the parade because of education
I continued with my studies with all the effort to get good marks, spending time in the library with the books and the subject not available with me It was easy to get the popular books of all the eight subjects from the bookshops in Raipur but still there were certain subjects for which we had to refer from the books from the large library of the college it must be containing more than a lakh of books and should have been one of the biggest library of any engineering college in the state at that time. The calculators and computers were not invented till then even if in they were invented they were not in regular production and use our dependency on calculation was on the SLIDE RULE. A sort of regular scale in which another sliding unit for incorporate and the calibrations there in facilitated the user to calculate all the variable like log, tan, sin, Multiple is of II whenever we forgot to take the slide rule in the class it was commented by professor –some students took help of the printed book called “log table” Continued in next Blog.

Concluding The Third year and My Reading Hobby
After the exams I was at Rajnandgaon only, helping the family in dairy business and holidays by reading books I have been rather today also an introword person, I do not know this should be called a good quality or or bad quality but my tendency has always been to have self contentment which might not have been liked by family members at times however it will be difficult to change the nature now reading has been my hobby, in holiday I used to finish some times two or more novels in a day. No particular choice in novels, but Gulshan Nanda was vary famous that time some of his novels made a film script like “Kati Patang” His novels were mostly on social issues Apart from Gulshan Nanda the other favorites were Vedprakash Kaboj’s character Vijay was my favorite I have not read any of their I have not read any of their novels for a decade now and should be available in some good and versatile library The hobby is continuing today also though the choices are changed because of age position and maturity. I am regular subscriber of The Readers Digest and some autobiography of all time great like Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru and APJ Abdul Kalam are ready treat of readings continued in next blog.

The Marriage and its Equations
I am noticing today that the career oriented and highly qualified generation is not giving the appropriate importance of rather preferences to timely marriage. Marriage in right time between 21 to 25 years of age for a gave and 24 to 28 years of age for the boy is ideal. It has got a very strong medical reason for both the girl develops the right physical condition to go for a marriage and the related activities there after the education is complete and she becomes mater enough to make good balancing between the personal life and any career she chooses. Similarly for boys who normally opt for higher education the trend today is of management courses and this makes the choices for setting in married life by three years. But what so ever may be the reason the marriages should take place in right time for a healthy married life.
