Tirunelveli-an making News in Global Tech World!
2008-02-03 12:26:00 When another Tirunelvelian makes news in the global tech world, how can i remain silent?When I saw the news about Seattle based Global Scholar in Techcrunch, i disregarded the news on seeing the headline. But my whole perception towards Global Scholar changed today on hearing that Kal Raman, CEO of Global Scholar was from Tirunelveli (Thanks to Kiruba's Blog). How exciting it is to hear about another person from your native making news in the global tech world!!!My 2 Cents to Investors Ignition Partners and Knowledge Universe: Never, ever, worry about $42.5 million invested in Global Scholar. Just remember that we, the Tirunelvelians are born with the gene of business. :DP.S: Incidentally, Kal Raman also graduated from CEG, Anna University
God Save Tirunelveli CSI Diocess
2007-12-24 06:00:00 When a police Jeep is required for the peaceful conduct of a Church Service in Tirunelveli, you know that something is horribly wrong. It is not (the regular) RSS and Sangh Parivar, who are the culprits but the internal politics of Tirunelveli CSI Diocese. The intricacies of the politics witnessed during the recent elections showed the stuff that Tirunelveli CSI Diocese is really made up of. The recent elections got everything from double crossing, 'bunkee' jumping and even the occasional violence. (Surely would make a very good thriller movie). Read the story - 'Nellai Diocesan fight turns ugly'But for someone who loves the church and diocese, it is the sign of a doom bell ringing aloud. A Case Study of what would happen when power is given to religious authorities. [CSI Tirunelveli Diocese controls around 360 institutions and has 85,000+ students under its various institutions]. Was really heart wrenching to see a diocese which has produced national christian leaders going dow...
The Week that Was - 'Record Breaking' [Shivaji & Campus Placement]
2007-06-18 09:27:00 Shivaji, the Craze"Where are they releasing Shivaji @ Tirunelveli?". This was the first of the series of questions that i bombarded the autowallah who was taking me home after my 2 month internship at Pune. Not only me, the whole Tamil blogging world has been set on fire with the pre-release Rajini mania. Even the English news channels were not able to keep this important news(!) from their headlines.. [Surprisingly such extensive coverage of 'Shivaji' was not even seen on any of the Tamil channels.. :)].. Just the fact that a Tamil Movie 'Shivaji' was able to make the whole India sit up and take notice of it - amounts to a record breaking incident for me. Add to that, the following record breaking achievements by 'Shivaji, the boss' in TirunelveliFirst time, a movie is getting released in 3 theatres in Tirunelveli.. [Do you want any more proof that Tirunelveli is a city????]50 lakhs was the amount paid by the theatres in TirunelveliOfficial rate of First Day, First Show Tick...
Why Tirunelveli is "The City" of the world!!!
2006-12-15 18:18:00 "In life, we meet a lot of people, but make friends with few... In those few, some touch our life in such a way, that their presence is felt in their absence too..."Ya! You guessed it right. A regular SMS message from one of the umpteen number of friends of mine...But................This- message was different.....Reason:- It was from one of my very close friends who has been with me right from my school. He for some reason saw it fit to send this message. (He has never forwarded me a SMS before). To cut the story short, this message made me thinking. Made me to understand why wherever i go, Tirunelveli will always be my city of the world!!! It made me to think of the awesome friends that God has gifted me in my childhood.Those of us who had seen the Microsoft Ad would accept that it is the people who differentiates the organizations and gives it the competitive edge. In the same way, it is my friends who differentiates Tirunelveli from the rest of the world. It is because of them, ...
In Service for Sight
2006-11-29 22:55:00 This post is on the request of one of my friends who asked me to write/post on any interesting material that we, the management guys(:-)) would come across. As someone who blindly loves his home town, it is natural that I post on the case which made my home town to appear in the map of one of the management books I study. If you are thinking about what I am talking about, just answer this connect question? . . Connect Harvard Business Case Studies, A Small Temple Town in Southern Part of India and Cataracts? . . It is none other than Aravind Eye Care Hospital. Ø A role model for many hospitals and subject of study in many business schools Ø A Hospital to which the Google co-founder and president (Products), Larry Page, flew down to look at the overall view of its functions. Ø The only examination centre of the Royal College of Ophthalmology, United Kingdom, in the country Ø Designated by the World Health Organisation as a collaborating centre for pr... |
