Recently I got the opportunity to interview a fine talent of our college. <\/p>
Her name is Sahaja perusing her third-year BTech (ECE Dept).She has amazed us with her live performance on fresher\u2019s 2k15. A small conversation with her gave me a lot of knowledge about her passion \u2013Gymnastics. So these were her answers to my queries.<\/p>
\uf0b7 When and why did you join gymnastics? <\/p>
-I joined gymnastics during my 3rd class summer break and later continued it due to my intense liking for this sport. I joined it because I like physical games more than studies. <\/p>
\uf0b7 So you have done schooling from a sports <\/p>
-Yes, I was selected for the sports school. <\/p>
\uf0b7 How do you get the courage to just do something that looks like you could break your neck?<\/p>
-Hold your breath and count to three.<\/p>
\uf0b7 How do you maintain your grip on the bars? <\/p>
-We use chalk. Chalk helps keep gymnast hands free from sweating and slipping off the bars, but it is hard to get off.<\/p>
\uf0b7 Are grips comfortable? <\/p>
-They are miserable until you get them broken in and build up enough blisters. <\/p>
\uf0b7 Do you flinch watching each other?<\/p>
-Absolutely! I get more nervous watching them than performing it myself.<\/p>
\uf0b7 Who do you think will win a faceoff between women and men? <\/p>
-I think women\u2019s team has more potential to win.<\/p>
\uf0b7 How many medals have you won till now?<\/p>
-approximately 40 -50 state level, national level 20. Few are only participation<\/p>
\uf0b7 Who is your inspiration? <\/p>
Many gymnasts like Nadia.<\/p>"},{"type":"img","id":"img-uid-1503420869535","data":"599c6301a70ef"},{"type":"txt","id":"rich_1503421015416","data":"

Over the weekend, social media and WhatsApp bore witness to the horrific abuse of a 3 perhaps 4-year-old child being yelled and slapped into learning their first digits in life. With the child begging the woman shooting the video to teach her with love, begging with her hands clasped together, saying she already has a headache and an earache from all the yelling, it leads me to believe that whoever this sick twisted person who shot the video was, she probably thought it would make a cute and funny video that would be shared amongst the family so they can all join together and laugh at the horrors inflicted upon the psyche of a 4-year-old. <\/p>
Obviously, it didn't work out so well for the woman who shot the video<\/p>
The short horror story caused an uproar of indignation amongst many across social media, with current Indian cricket team captain Virat Kohli sharing it and bringing it to national attention. Those familiar with the issue have told me that the video had already gone viral on Whatsapp's Uncle Network (a name we made up out of sheer frustration of being subjected to blatant propaganda and those annoying good morning and good night messages every day) and that while some people reacted in horror, there have been an uncomfortably large amount of people who are perfectly okay with the child being psychologically scarred for their entire life just to learn some numbers. <\/p>
The same sick and twisted phenomenon could be seen on social media, where most of the top comments were 'We were beaten up when we were children, we turned out just fine!', no, my friends, you did not turn out fine, especially not when you see such blatant child abuse on the screen, where the child is screaming in rage and frustration, repeating anything to make the torment stop and not actually learning anything. <\/p>"},{"type":"youtube","id":"vid-url-1503393732520","data":"VpwdWE3c5U4"},{"type":"txt","id":"rich_1503389087327","data":"
This festering cancer within our society that scars kids for life and causes a serious lack of respect for authority figures in children growing up to be adults is just a part of the usual great Indian hypocrisy: in one breath we extol the virtues of children, calling them pure of heart and being the physical embodiment of the gods themselves on earth, with another we do not hesitate to beat them up and force them into learning through fear instead of letting the child be curious and ask questions. <\/p>
While India's long laundry list of hypocrisies can fill several volumes of old dusty tomes found in ancient libraries, right now, at this moment, there is a mother somewhere who thinks the video she made of their child is something cute and to be laughed at with the rest of her family instead of evidence of a rot in our society, one that must be treated before the cancer kills the body. <\/p>
I'm not sure how many of you are old enough to remember, but when I was growing up, there was this certain school that had mastered the art of commodifying education, selling it like fish in the market instead of a tool to empower the children unfortunate enough to be trapped in their cages. The USP of these prisons was that they were extremely strict with their students\/prisoners, and back in the day, extremely strict was a dog whistle for saying they employed corporal punishments. <\/p>
Parents, who knew full well that corporal punishments were banned by the Delhi High Court after a landmark case that outlawed the inhuman practice in the year 2000, still sent their children to schools like these because they believed beatings would help their children improve their grades and study well. <\/p>
It is important that I highlight the utter disgust I'm feeling at this moment at my fellow countrymen and women, but the rage I'm feeling probably cannot be translated into words without me resorting to less than acceptable language on this platform, and hence I will refrain from doing so, but I do have this to say, what sort of coward would want to hit a child that probably does not even know any better? Why have we become so accustomed to child abuse that we shrug it off and move on instead of standing our ground and saying this is not okay? Whatever happened to Steve Rogers saying that when the whole world tries to convince you that something wrong is something right and tells you to move, it is your duty to plant yourself like a tree on the banks of the river of truth, look these dealers of child violence in the eye and say, 'No, you move.' <\/p>"},{"type":"img","id":"img-uid-1503391568049","data":"599befb23975f"},{"type":"txt","id":"rich_1503391574575","data":"
Growing up, I had everything from chalk to a full sized duster throw at me, the latter of which shattered the window I was sitting in front of, the scars of the incident still a constant reminder of how utterly disgusting our attitude towards child abuse is in this country. The offender, in this case, was our physics teacher, a man who didn't think twice in slapping kids around. But on that day, I had had enough, I was already taller than him and extremely angry at having glass shards piercing my back. Combine this with teenage angst, years of being abused by various teachers and having the object of my anger right in front of my eyes at the head of the class. Let's just say he got what was coming for him and I narrowly managed to escape a dismissal from the school.<\/p>
But for every student who manages to successfully stand up to their oppressors in schools across India, how many more suffer in silence because they know they will not get justice, not at home, or at school, when both of these places are controlled and led by poor excuse of human beings, cowards in the name of teachers and parents who believe it is their right to hit children? <\/p>
As the years went by, the notion of hitting a child just because they disobeyed you or didn't understand you made no sense at all. Children learn from the adults they see around them, so when they are beaten for disobedience or some misunderstanding, they are imprinting upon their children the singular notion that might is right, and that only physical violence is the proper answer to everything in life. This leads to children fearing and secretly resenting you, even if they won't admit it, and they would much rather risk lying than telling you the truth ever again because why should they trust you to be their friend in need when all you've shown them is your complete lack of tact and your caveman tendency by hitting a defenseless child?<\/p>"},{"type":"img","id":"img-uid-1503392664770","data":"599bf8699f8be"},{"type":"txt","id":"rich_1503392666893","data":"
Nothing gives me more pleasure than seeing a teacher go to jail because they had become too big for their own heads. This extends to professors in engineering colleges, who believe themselves to be above the law. I knew one such professor who lied to students that he had an accident when in reality, mask-wearing students had waylaid him and beaten him till he cried and begged them to stop. This news should horrify me, but it didn't. Why? Because the professor had it coming for him, he lorded over students and believe he could beat up anyone he wanted with no consequences. There's also the fact that people often forget engineering students are legally adults and are usually big enough to stand up for themselves and fight back. But I digress. <\/p>
Studies have shown us that students and children who respect their teachers and parents respectively are more likely to listen to their wishes than children who are beaten into submission. Fear does not work, it just makes children be more secretive and become extremely good with their lies, ask anyone of your friends that sneaks out at night for a round of drinks. I have already mentioned twice before that Indian parents are hilariously inept at being parents, most of them are just birth givers with children who grow up learning lies to hide themselves to the point that their parents have no idea about the kind of person their child has become. <\/p>
It is time to stop using fear as a tool to force children into studying, because it has never and will never work. Fear only teaches secrecy, which is why you see many adults today, especially women, living double lives. If you're a guy, just ask your female friends how many excuses they make to get out of the house to hang out with their squad, and how many of those excuses are the truth. <\/p>
The history of this country is being written, and I hope to see it become a great country where children do not have to fear to go to school because some unloved coward turned teacher beats them. Not only will there be hell to pay, if it were my child, I would not rest until I personally make sure that teacher is fired and possibly arrested, but perhaps that would be putting too much faith in the working of our law and order department. <\/p>
A child does not ask to be born, the choice to bring a child into this world is the parents to make, and it simply boggles my mind that there are people who think a couple making this choice means they 'own' the child. <\/p>
No, they don't, you don't own the child, in fact, you owe the child all the love and care you can afford to give it because it was by your choice and your body that the child was born. If the baby had a choice, would it really choose parents that abuse it for something as simple as learning numbers?<\/p>"}]

October 18 2015: Let's take you to the PVR grounds, Shamshabad, Hyderabad. It was mid day and sun is head high scorching heat. but one particular group of people seem to be loosing their cool more than anyone else there. It was a HCA(Hyderabad Cricket Association) division league match and team members of Satya Cricket club were already dispirited and dissuaded with their performance as their dreams to end their losing streak seemed impossible. They were playing against CK Blues and were quickly losing wickets in the first innings itself and the score board didn't look good. But there was one guy who's still \nwaiting for his turn and wanted to keep the dreams alive. wickets went down and the fifteen year old boy entered on to the crease. In what must be one of the greatest comebacks according to his coach the boy went on to score an unbeaten 108 in his 25 over innings with just two more wickets in hand. All the team members were delighted with his innings and felt uplifted. They bowled out the opponents for a very less score and won the match by a very large margin.\n\"That was my most memorable and the best nostalgic moment for and I could never forget it as it was first of its kind in entire life\", says Abhishek Anumalla 18 year old, Computer Science engineering student and a Cricket enthusiast and a great dancer from CMRCET,Hyd.<\/p>\n
Abhishek recently received many accolades for his innings he played against the senior team in an exhibition match organised by the physical department of CMRCET. He unanimously won the match for the juniors team and showcased his amazing talent. we decided to nominate him for \"the student of the week\"and approached him for an interview.<\/p>\n
The team: Hello Abhishek! Congrats dude\n that was a great performance!\nAbhi: Hello! Thank you very much guys! that\n means a lot to me.\nTeam : Give us a brief intro about yourself \n Abhishek.\nAbhi: Well my name is Abhishek Anumalla\n Studying Computer Science(II year)\n in CMRCET.I stay in Malkajgiri,a bit\n far from college.\nTeam: about parents?<\/p>\n
Abhi: My father Dr.Balakrishnan works as\n the director of UGC Academic staff\n in Osmania University. He's my real\n hero and stays that way forever .<\/p>\n
My Goddess, Dr.Vanaja ,my mother \n works as a librarian at Kasturba \n Gandhi college for women.<\/p>\n
Team: Nice! you said your dad to be your\n hero. Tells us why?\nAbhi: Everything would be less to describe\n him. All the sacrifices he made for\n me, he forgoes his sleep for my\n practice countless times and still\n manages all the work at home and\n office in the best way possible.\n He's also the president of Consumer\n Welfare Association that has great\n recognition over the state.\n I could go on all the day about him,\n if you let me.<\/p>\n","id":"1503333453177","type":"txt"},{"data":"

Team: Great! Tell us about your hobbies,\n what you generally do when you're\n free apart from Cricket?\nAbhi: Well, my hobbies include dancing to\n dubstep music, playing football and\n listening to music.

Abhi: My greatest achievement till date\n had to be when my name appeared\n for the Under-19 probables in the \n HCA in 2015.\nTeam: wow! that's great! have you\n played?\nAbhi: Unfortunately no! it's complicated.\n My coach didn't notify me about my\n selection. it hit me so hard :-(\nTeam: why's that?<\/p>\n
Abhi: I don't know. I didn't bother to ask.\n was very sad and disheartened. I\n made my friends to ask him for\n which he said\" Abhishek got select\n -ed and I notified him about it but\n he didn't show up at the HCA. It\n was so hard for me to digest it. it\n took me a while to come over it and\n resume my play.\n Now this year I'll be playing one day\n leagues again so I'm all pumped.<\/p>\n
Team: Great abhi! we can't miss a player\n like you and would feel great to\n watch you play!<\/p>\n
Abhi: haha! thank you!<\/p>\n

My ultimate dream is to be a\n billionaire.I will work with every\n -thing I got to reach there.I also\n have thoughts like becoming a\n football manager of one the most\n Popular clubs in the world, to be\n a renowned ethical hacker . The\n greatest of all , owning a software\n company :-P<\/p>\n
Team: wow! such diverse aspirations you\n have there 😁<\/p>\n
Abhi: well I am free to dream. isn't it?<\/p>\n
Team: How did you got into engineering?\n coz you are doing well in cricket\n right?<\/p>\n
Abhi: I ask the same question to myself\n as to why everyday when I go to\n sleep. But I had to choose between\n the both and I happened to got here.\n But I don't regret that decision yet,\n as I experience a great environment\n here with different people. I still got\n two more years to prove myself and\n I'm sure I would do great with my\n cricketing career.<\/p>\n
Team: about your siblings?<\/p>\n
Abhi: oh yeah! I can't forget about her. \n Apoorva ,my elder sister also\n graduated from CMRCET from ECE\n branch.she got placed in Capgemini\n and is waiting for the call letter from\n company. She's like my support\n system always there for me when I\n feel low and cheers me up. I feel\n great to have such a sister.<\/p>\n
Team: Great! Any particular reason for\n choosing computer science? what\n subject do you like the most?<\/p>\n
Abhi: I loved coding dude! I also learnt\n something about hacking before I\n got into the college. But now I feel\n like losing interest in it after I got\n here :-*\n I love math. I used to be afraid of \n it but thanks to my mom I'm no \n more.i started solving problems\n while listening to music and it\n slowly turned into a habit.

Abhi: haha! Noo ragging in any form is\n but encouraged in our college. They\n are very strict about it and you\n know why.

If you've been paying attention to my writings for the last couple of weeks, I've been dropping hints that I am not who I actually claim to be. Shireen is not my real name, although I am from BITS Hyderabad, I adopted this pseudonym to keep my identity a secret for no apparent reason except for the fact that I simply didn't want to be identified, I like keeping my privacy. <\/p>
Speaking of privacy, we've had excellent articles on this very platform highlighting the need for it especially for us students, and why we must fight for it. However, for introverts such as yours truly, there are certain times in the year where your privacy goes for a toss no matter how much you want to keep it: festivals. <\/p>"},{"type":"img","id":"img-uid-1503345282406","data":"599b428344c15"},{"type":"txt","id":"rich_1503345283996","data":"
Personally, I do not mind. Because this is the only time in the year I acknowledge the existence of relatives. As much as I hate their prying eyes and questions, especially the ones which ask me when I'm getting married, I do have cousins who are super cool and around whom I can be myself again. This is the only reason I subject myself to the torture of the public eye, so I can hang out with the cousins that I choose to like. <\/p>
That being said, it is quite amazing how festivals in India bring together our families like no other time. Of course, the west has their Thanksgivings and Christmas parties, but nothing brings a family together like Indian festivals do. With all the privacy invading questions aside, it is absolutely great to catch up with your cousins over delicious sweets that you will regret eating later, but eat anyway because which sane person says no to ladoos and Kaju Barfi? <\/p>
With Ganesh Chaturthi coming up in a couple of days, it is important to remember that this is what makes India what it is, our close knit communities have problems of their own, but when we come together for something positive, it is a beautiful sight to see. <\/p>"},{"type":"img","id":"img-uid-1503346260559","data":"599b42c716372"},{"type":"txt","id":"rich_1503346263478","data":"
Diwali, another festival that most of us love, has long since lost it's appeal for me because of all the pollution it causes, but I still enjoy hanging out with my cousins and discussing various issues, the hottest on the day being all the pollution caused. While our parents do not understand our position on the festival, all us cousins have decided to not be a part of festivities, choosing instead to work on social issues. We've taken it upon ourselves to clean the streets next morning of all the paper and collect it for the hardworking municipal workers who come to usually sweep and pick it up, and we make it a point to give them sweets for all their hardwork. <\/p>
Eid holds a special place in my heart because it teaches tolerance to people around me. In all the years that I've lived, I've never known a person to dislike Muslims after they had a taste of our delicious Sheer Kurma, but I'll talk about Eid on a later date. <\/p>
If anything, festivals are a representative of what we can achieve if we come together as people who love and respect one another. We must treat our fellow citizens as an extended family and spread the love as much as we can, only then can this once great country become great once again. <\/p>"}]

The central government recently announced that the government will provide Rs 70,000 as monthly fellowship to those researchers doing their PhDs in IITs or IISc. This has been done as a move to enable meritorious researchers, keen to further their research but forced to opt for corporate jobs for higher pay, to pursue their goal, as Union higher education secretary Kewal Kumar Sharma said at IIT Kharagpur on Friday. <\/p>
\u201cAs part of the research fellowship scheme of Prime Minister Narendra Modi, we wish the meritorious students who are being forced to leave the country for purely financial reasons stay within the country. We will provide 2,000 such monthly fellowships across the IIT system and IISc Bengaluru,\u201d he said, speaking at the 67th Foundation Day of IIT Kharagpur.<\/p>
The question I wish to raise here is what about researchers from some other branch of research, like humanities or social sciences? I believe this stems from the \"humanities students only protest while engineers work hard for the development of the country\" thought process; with emphasis being put on sciences and technical branches of research, to ensure these branches attract more students than humanities and social sciences (which is already the case).<\/p>
One sad part of the Indian educational system and subsequently Indian professionals is that most of the people study engineering, in hopes of easy jobs and opportunities. Most of the engineers that this country churns out, work in some or the other MNC based out of some other country, so indirectly working and making money for the companies based out of other countries. Because of these companies outsourcing most of their workforce to India, from the government's perspective and from the perspective of most parents in this country, it is important to study only engineering as it will solve a lot of problems (the major one being that of unemployment) but technical education and technical expertise will never solve societal problems.<\/p>
I had written earlier speaking about why humanities and tech students<\/a> should understand each other but now, it seems as if the entire country should understand the importance of studying humanities and social sciences and pursuing those branches as career options too. <\/p>The constitution that protects you, was written by a humanities person. The laws that protect you, were formulated by people from humanities' backgrounds. The newspapers that you read to consume news, are written by people who studied journalism, which is again a branch of humanities. <\/p>It is imperative for everyone in this country to understand the importance of humanities, especially parents' of teenagers so that these branches can also be seen as career options. The government, in its turn, should also realise the importance of humanities and give humanities researchers too, their fair share of fellowships.<\/p>"}]
