APOORVA: First of all, I must
admit, my parents have been my
great inspiration who guided,
guarded and motivated me into
studying well. In fact, I wanted
to score good marks and make
them happy.That was my aim.
Secondly, the teachers at school
played a great role in encouraging
and motivating me, hence
the credit behind my success
goes to them. My brother Karan
was someone whom I was looking
up to for inspiration as he
himself was a gold medallist. He
is my greatest motivator. I should
also add that he is my role model.
Regarding friends, yes, we did
group study and that helped to
secure good marks.
DM: After SSLC, what -Science,
Arts or Commerce?
APOORVA: In fact, I have
already chosen Science stream.
Physics, Chemistry Mathematics
and Statistics will be my subjects
of future study. I have chosen Science
because I
am planning to
prepare myself
for JEE and CET
exams. I must
admit, Mathematics
is my favourite
subject.
I simply love
Maths.
DM: After
two years of education, where do
you see yourself going?
APOORVA: As I said, after appearing
for JEE/CET, I wish to secure
a seat in some good engineering
college and later on to appear
for UPSC examination as my aim
is to become an IPS officer someday.
DM: Online education is the
‘new-normal’ in today’s world. Do
you think it is going to be effective,
as students keep complaining about
not being able to concentrate?
APOORVA: I think in the
present scenario, online classes
are the only best option considering
the safety of students.
I agree there is a difference between
real classroom and online
classroom, but with the present
technology it is not at all difficult
to interact with your teachers and
clear the doubts.
In the presence situation, I
believe we don’t have any other
option but to achieve best possible
results from the available set up.
Again, concentration depends on
the students if they have a mind
to cope up with the education and
I am sure it will definitely benefit
us.u
Continued from page 24 meant. Perhaps, if it is
referred to as swiping machine or billing machine,
the customer would be more comfortable. Also, we
have graduated from the days of Codified Circulars
to Master Circulars to SOP (Standard Operative Procedure).
Even government regularly comes out with
SOPs for Covid situations. Shall we presume that SOP
is not ‘old wine in new bottle’? Bankers fluently use
several abbreviations such as RACPC, CCPC, CPPC,
TFCPC, RLPC, FIMM, DSH, RACC etc., with the firm
belief that customers should grasp these.
Just as you need to a have dictionary to understand
the meaning of difficult words, it is time to
have dictionary to decipher all such abbreviations
and terminologies. Or should I say, we need to have
a granular data and MIS (Management Information
System) on all such abbreviations and terminologies
used. Also, despite giving push to digital products,
bankers complain that footfalls in branches have not
reduced at all and perhaps its time to have a paradigm
shift in their strategies. Also, when the bankers
talk of footfalls or walk-in customers can they forget
about ‘on boarding’ of new customers for new initiatives
of the Bank, under different verticals?
Incidentally, even government is not far behind
in using such abbreviations. How many of us know
the expansion of PM CARES Fund? Actually, its Prime
Minister’s Citizen Assistance and Relief in Emergency
Situations Fund created on March 28, 2020, for
combating COVID 19 pandemic. As a matter of fact
it should have been India CARES Fund as whole of
India cares for the treatment for the dreaded virus
and not Prime Minister alone. But then, who cares?
That’s why we always say, “Kaalaaya Tasmai
Namaha”, though no one has coined KTN so far! u
