Henry Wadsworth Longfellow once said that the heights by great men reached and kept were not attained by sudden flight, but they, while their companions slept, were toiling upward in the night, a saying that applies to the struggle to achieve a separate statehood to Telangana as well. Starting back in 1955, the struggle was kept alive by the sons and daughters of the land, carrying out without faltering and without fear, all the while their companions slept or ignored them. <\/p>
This is why Telangana is not merely a state carved out of a much bigger state for administrative purpose, but the end result of a struggle that claimed many lives, received many wounds, and its people, their spirits broken, until such a day when they could look up again when a leader of the masses stepped up and took charge. It was then, at this moment, when the people of the land took charge of the protest once again, and didn't stop fighting until the cycle was repeated. <\/p>
It is no coincidence then, that the leader to break this cycle was the charismatic K. Chandrashekar Rao. Him, along with close aides and family, led the struggle, and gave the people a leadership to believe in. He gave the people of Telangana a leader they could trust, and he delivered. <\/p>
On this day, in 2014, Telangana was born, and when it comes to newborns, utmost care must be taken to ensure it grows up to be strong. The people of Telangana knew what was needed, and the people of Telangana chose the TRS party to shape the state in its most crucial years, a choice which will shower the state with positive blessings for years to come.<\/p>"},{"type":"img","id":"img-uid-1496397584955","data":"5931377ea8df6"},{"type":"txt","id":"rich_1496397628101","data":"
Under the excellent leadership of KCR, and with his son, K. T. Rama Rao at the helm of the departments of Information Technology, Urban development and Textiles, the state has seen a rapid spurt of growth, and Telangana's crown jewel, Hyderabad, the city we all love, has only grown prosperous thanks to their efforts. <\/p>
Telangana State since its formation has performed exceptionally well in various fields, both social and economic. Telangana's IT\/ITES exports hit a whopping Rs. 85,470 crore, with a goal of Rs. 1,20,000 by 2020, as said by KTR. This means that our current growth rate in IT exports is 13.85%, which is 4% higher than the national average. KTR himself has been tirelessly working for Telangana, speaking with CEOs of major multinational companies as well as keeping a close eye on the IT industry in the state. From bringing development to the state to navigating the serpentine halls of politics, KTR, much like his father and Chief Minister KCR, has been an instrumental factor in changing the lives of the people of Telangana, bringing much needed development that focuses only on the state. <\/p>
If Telangana is the idea, KTR is the messiah. He's the messenger that brings the word of Telangana to the investors and people alike, so that in the future, the people of Telangana have something they could depend on. At the end of the day, it only seems fair that a struggle of so many years is only met with rapid development once the struggle is over, and it's time to act upon the hopes and dreams of the people who've believed in you. For the people, and for the martyrs, now and forever. <\/p>"}]

The best part about having awesome grandparents is that you get rewarded for every petty deed you do! One such home is mine. I lost my paternal grandparents few years ago and all that I am left with are my maternal grandparents who are teachers. My grandfather is a 70 year old retired government school headmaster and so is my grandmother who is about 65. <\/p>
They have this strange habit of gifting us money whenever they visit us. This year during summer they visited us just for a day. To make them relaxed from the scorching heat they traveled in, I made them each a glass of lemonade as that was the best thing I could do in the kitchen! Then my sister and I sat with them and started discussing our recent accomplishments which were small but worth sharing with them.<\/p>
It was evening and by then and my parents had returned from office and greeted my grandparents. Later, after dinner, we were just lazing around in the hall when we got an awesome idea of teaching my grandparents to transfer money through \u201cpaytm\u201d. Quickly we downloaded the app and taught them. Though they were ambiguous at first they slowly learned to do it on their smartphones which we had gifted them on their wedding anniversary. They also learnt to book a cab which was almost like teaching a baby to use a dictionary. We were so happy that they could learn it just within an hour\u2019s instruction and that was the end of the day. <\/p>
Next morning by the time my sister and I woke up, my grandparents had already left for some family get together. That day when my mother returned from her office, we found a note on the bookshelf saying \u201copen the biggest book\u201d. We did, it was a dictionary to the irony, and we found three \u20b92000\/- notes inside that book. Immediately my mom called up my grandfather and asked if it was his gift. My grandfather gently replied \u201cpaytm may be useful but this is my style!\u201d My mother then burst into a huge laugh and said \u201cThis habit of yours has never changed since my childhood!\u201d<\/p>
She then told the three of us who were already confused as hell that the bookshelf had always been my grandfather\u2019s favorite place at home to hide money. That is the reason behind me describing my bookshelf as \u201cobscurely wealthy\u201d.<\/p>"}]

Masters in Business Administration is one of the greatest degrees a person can pick up, giving themselves a massive boost to their profile, and by extension, their career and their quality of life. Due to the nature of the program and the various types of people it attracts, it is only natural that there are variations of the degree and a difference in how fast you can graduate with a degree in MBA and a specialisation of your choosing. That being said, getting into the meat of the matter, it is important for us to understand the difference between 1-Year MBA course (or Executive MBA as we shall refer it from here) and the more traditional 2-Year MBA course.<\/p>
The Executive MBA course is for working professionals who have an experience of 7 to 10 years or higher in the industry and often cannot afford to attend classes like the students of traditional MBA course do. It is also for those who wish to rejoin the workforce without taking a bigger break. In short, this is the perfect course for working professionals who have enough experience to navigate their way around the tiny details of the industry and are getting their degree to further their career, an admirable prospect, to say the least. <\/p>"},{"type":"img","id":"img-uid-1496142505427","data":"592d5b91be88c"},{"type":"txt","id":"rich_1496142507323","data":"
The traditional 2-Year MBA course offers students a chance to grow and get used to the industry work ethics and standards. You get to rub shoulders with the best and the brightest, network and grow as an individual and as a leader. It goes without saying that where you study will be the brand that will be associated with you, and the name of your college will open doors for you. So if you have to do an MBA, make sure you do your best to be picked by the best. <\/p>
So, you may be wondering at this point, what are the pros and cons of the two courses.<\/p>
Choosing Traditional MBA over Executive MBA, <\/b><\/p>
The Pros:<\/b><\/p>
The chance to grow is tremendous, the chance to network is even more so, the bonds you will make here will help you throughout the country, and sometimes even across the world. Networking is king, and the best way to use your MBA network is to build them over the course duration of the 2-Year MBA program<\/p>
The 2-Year Course also allows freshly graduated students, or professionals with less than 5 or 7 years of work experience to equip themselves better to navigate the fine details of the corporate world. It will train them for a leadership role, giving them industry exposure and, provided you study in one of the top colleges, open many doors for you. Which brings us to the cons<\/p>
The Cons: <\/b><\/p>
In today's fast-paced world, even professionals with 2 to 4 years of work experience cannot afford to lose time by giving away 2 years of precious experience. This is a gap that is perfectly filled by Executive MBA, which we will get to now. <\/p>"},{"type":"img","id":"img-uid-1496143876503","data":"592d5b5a14c46"},{"type":"txt","id":"rich_1496143878122","data":"
Executive MBA over Traditional MBA<\/b><\/p>
It's fast, it's efficient, it gets the job done, and you have the advantage of attending classes while working, or taking weekend classes and finishing your coursework as soon as possible. This is the best thing a working professional with over 7 years of industry experience can opt for. For such people, they already have roots in the industry, all they need is a solid foundation upon which they can build their careers, which is why Executive MBAs are popular. <\/p>
The Cons:<\/b><\/p>
Executive MBAs are sometimes as expensive as a Traditional MBA course, but as a wise man once said, you get what you pay for. There's also little opportunity to build connections which will go on to pay dividends later due to the nature of the course and the amount of time you'll be spending, but if you're a working professional with a good chunk of experience, this should not be a problem to you at all. <\/p>"},{"type":"img","id":"img-uid-1496144398192","data":"592d5b323f993"},{"type":"txt","id":"rich_1496144399803","data":"

If there was ever a word to describe Ranjan, it would be 'self-taught'. He began teaching kids about programming and programming languages without ever having attended a single class himself, \"I've already had experience teaching kids back when I myself was in school, and I carried that here. I've taught myself the programming languages I know,\" he says, before elaborating \"the biggest challenge Bihar faces is negative perception. This has to change for Bihar to grow, and I will continue fighting against it.\"<\/p>
To combat Bihar's negative perception, Mistry also launched 'Startup City', where 17 startups working in various fields out of Bihar could collaborate, build a future together with a proper ecosystem.\" <\/p>"},{"type":"img","id":"img-uid-1496316370169","data":"592ffa2187989"},{"type":"txt","id":"rich_1496316377857","data":"
\"Plant Eco Circle, I would say, is a for profit NGO,\" he clarifies, on being asked about it, \"We tackle environmental issues of the country. As a matter of fact this June 5, we're organising an event where participants will plant trees,\" June 5 is celebrated worldwide as the World Environment Day. <\/p>
Ranjan goes on to talk about the challenges faced by them when it comes to educating children in rural Bihar, \"It is extremely hard to come by good teachers, or teachers at all, for that matter. We are also almost always short on funding, and we are in requirement of new laptops so we can teach children. The nature of this area,\" he continues, speaking about areas hit with Naxalism, \"it is difficult for someone to accept a position here.\" <\/p>"},{"type":"img","id":"img-uid-1496316990974","data":"592ffcd3d2598"},{"type":"txt","id":"rich_1496317032521","data":"
When we asked Ranjan what his advice to students who want to break out and make their own path would be, he laughed and said, \"It's simple, if you think you are capable of providing a job and stable income to at least 5 to 6 people, and can make a positive impact on people's lives, then I think you are wasting your time in a job, and you should become an entrepreneur. It is a big responsibility, and nobody ever said it is easy, but don't forget that until last year I didn't even know that one has to register a company first. It's all the matter of what you are confident in what you can do, and of course, you can do it. So go ahead and make your own path, because if there is one thing India needs the most right now, is more entrepreneurs.\"<\/p>
We wish Ranjan all the best for his future endaevours. <\/p>"}]
