·         How can India become global power in coming years- I said by improving the ties with neighbouring countries.

By improving these ties we can save the huge amounts spent every year on defence and use that money for economic development. Moreover trade between these countries is cheaper and as a fact our neighbouring countries are full of natural resources we can advantage from it a lot.  And also country like srilanka which is very strategically located can help us in trade with other eastern and western countries.

Strengths

·         Adaptability

·         Inter personal skills

Weakness

·         Multitasking

·         Attention to details

 

 

HERE IS MY CET GD EXPERIENCE- 2009

It was 25th Monday and I actually forgot about the fact that I was supposed to go for gdpi today unless one of my family member happened to ask me ‘when is ur gdpi?’

DATE: 25th May

TIME: 4-5 pm

VENUE: JBIMS

I reached the centre at 3.45 pm (but I would suggest you guys to reach atleat 30 mins before time). As soon as I reached there I showed my hall ticket and the female registered my name. I was given two similar forms by her, I thought she did a mistake, But after few minutes I realized that I was supposed to fill both of them. It was new as last year I had filled only one form.

I was filling my first form and was just half way through that I was called for my GD. Roll no wise every1 entered the room and got seated. But I do not know y we were sitting in wrong places even after following the instructions so the panel inside called us roll no wise again and rearranged our places. It was actually funny.

One of the panellist opened a sealed envelope and gave us two topics and asked us to choose one topic. “Indian women compared to women of other nations.” And I do not remember other topic.

Well we were given 2 mins to jot down points. 2 mins were over but the panel didn’t ask us to start. I was ready so I looked around, I looked at a guy and he also seemed ready, so I smartly asked him to start without sayin a word. What he did was funny, he asked the panel if he could start and as expected by me panel immediately refused and asked him to wait. It was just 30-40 seconds later the panel asked us to start.

Discussion started, 2-3 guys pitched in ,I think I was 3-4 one to speak and I spoke for the first time in 2 mins of time. This is important as u need to enter the GD at every stage by keeping the time. Like if it is 10 min GD make sure u speak in first 2 min, then in nxt 3 mins and then twice in last 5 mins.

As discussion went along, I realized that I am in the right place at right time. People around me were seriously dumb they went emotional, someone spoke in hindi and no one gave facts and figures initially. I jumped in by throwing some light on history like sati pratha, dowry and still women as housewives.

Then I went on to compare women all over the world with Indian women, described Indian women in corporate world, example of shakti, Indian women in space. Then reservation of women in parliament. On flip side I also talked about mangalore incident, Juhu beach last year, etc.

Once I thought people were just repeating the points and some dumb’s were getting emotional about the topicand I in very short summarized what we had discussed till now and then Asked them to come up with solution in order to solve the problem.

At last panel asked us to summarize the topic, I took the initiative and summarized it well. All in all a good GD and my gamble of taking a Monday and first day helped me as candidates around me were seriously dumb. It would have been so because firstly any experienced or a working candidate would not come on working day, so a big intelligent lot is excluded and moreover all intelligent people want to listen first from others about this years GDPI and then go for GD.

Event in Last Decade

Well I know every1 is wondering what to answer in this question. And it is quite tricky. I will give 2-3 events and you can choose anyone.

Whatever event you choose just make sure that you are able to explain a global impact of that event along with a national impact.

Loan Waiver

This would be quite unique if you say this. It was last year when in the budget congress declared loan waiver to farmers across the country.

Lets talk about Vidharbha in Maharashtra which has remain in news for farmers suicide and bad crop.Under the scheme, farmers holding more than 2ha of land are only eligible for a one-time waiver of Rs2,000, or 25% of their outstanding loans, whichever is higher. And this benefit, too, will be available only to those farmers who give an undertaking that they will pay up 75% of their loans by June 2009. Most farmers in Vidarbha are in no position to do this.

What happened is, congress immediately got the confidence back of farmers in the country. And given the fact that more than 60% of the population in our country depends on agriculture, a big vote bank was in favour of congress now. Even Rahul Gandhi after election win admitted that Loan waiver proved to be the pinch they required.

This I consider is a most important reason why congress won this election. And this win will definitely effect the country’s presence on global platform. Like still there would not be any change in policy with Pakistan and no urgency would be shown to get the culprits to India. There would be quotas for muslims in private sector now as said by congress in their manifesto.

It would be good as we will still have a honest Manmohan singh has PM. Congress will not raise ram mandir issue so no hindu-muslim problem there.

National Highway Development Project

The project was implemented in 1998. “National Highways” account for only about 2% of the total length of roads, but carry about 40% of the total traffic across the length and breadth of the country.

It lead to start of development of Golden Quadrilateral connecting four major cities Delhi, Mumbai, Chennai, Kolkata. In total 5846 km. Then there was establishment of North-Southand East-West corridor (7300 km).

Follow the link to know more.

What has this done is given a big boost to Indian infrastructure development. And as you know Infrastructure is most important for economic progress of any country, this project has immensely contributed to increasing FDI as the businesses have been given a boost and thus placing India very high on a global platform.

Other events

Here are some events which are important without any doubt but would be quite common and every 7-8 atleast out of 10 would be saying this. So if you want to say this get a nice way to put your point forward.

     ·         26/11 

     ·         IPL (get the necessary figures in my previous post on IPL)

     ·         India on Moon

  •  Nuclear deal (big boost to power sector. You can get the necessary figures on wikipedia)

     Do write the comments and let me know what do you think about this post.
