Humanitarian Relief Measures by the Srilankan Government!

One more of the many shocking evidences exposing the brutality of the Soliders towards Tamilians in Srilanka. Does the term "Justice" prevails in reality or it is just another word in the dictionary.

Happy B'day Pappu

Yesterday was another fantastic but a very special day for us. It was Pappu's 2nd Birthday ! Days are moving very fast. Seems like just few days back i was at KK Hospital witnessing my wife's labour. Neeraj today turns 2. He is quite mischevious but sweet naughty little angel. He likes the company of his bother TEJAS. They fight, share and luv each other. Chitra conducted the day very well, more importantly, to the interest of Neeraj. We went to Bukit Panjang Temple in the evening.

Ego Beast

0 comments

Morning one of my student ANITHA called me to discuss about some of her current projects and her difficulties with one of her previous supervisor. She is quite a studious girl and hardworking too. Unfortunately the last semester didnt turn up in her favour. Infact it became one of her worst too.
She was attached to one of the company in jurong island last semester for a period of nearly four months. Her supervisor in the company turned up to a ego beast. He was a chinese. He didnt expect the kind of dedication and steady output from her. He gave her challenging jobs which she did with enthusiasm and managed to finish before deadline. Unable to digest the fact that she is gaining grounds in the company, he started to disturb her constantly. He even went to the extend of writing something wrong about her behaviour and performance to her supervisors back in the school (Which happened to me!). I had written to him many times to extend his support to her in completing her industrial attachment successfully. He didnt listen to me and eventually he gave a very bad feedback about her. This affected her academic results and pushed her overall results to very low grade. She was really upset and i had to console her many times and gave her hopes.
She was very determinent and strong. She worked hard and she got few offers ( eventually took some marketing position). Until recently she had an another offer from one of the industrial gaints in singapore. The company had short listed her / went through few gruelling rounds of interview and she had hopes that she would get the position. But she didnt get any confirmation call from the company thereafter. When she called them back, she was hinted that her supervisor (during her industrial attachment) had given a very bad feedback about her.
When she told about this to me in the morning, i was really shocked. It really speaks so bad about that particular person. I felt that he is taking advantage of his position and playing with the kids future. What right he has in blocking the offers that she toiled so much to get ? Why people dont understand that WHAT ONE HAS TODAY MAY NOT BE HIS TOMORROW. NOTHING IN THIS MATERIAL WORLD IS GOING TO PERSIST FOR LONGER PERIOD NOR DO THEY BELONG TO US. WHAT WE BROUGHT TO THIS WORLD WHEN WE WERE BORN AND WHAT WE ARE GOING TO BRING BACK WHEN WE DIE?
