KGP . CoM

Here's I am expressing A lifetime of memories , I lived in a moment of joy. It all began , when a pal of mine , send me an invitation for KSHITIJ FEST '06- A Techno-Management. Event, which is the biggest fest in the Asia, conducted by World's Best , Indian Institute of Technology, Kharagpur (a.k.a Kgp) West Bengal . Well ,further taking my actions into gears , I would like , " The falling (ie KGP Janta) rain tells earth(ie.Me), your future is protected" [:)]

Life was really boring those days.. with renewed frustration ,and the indelible memories etched on its psyche , more to that no adventure & projects to do! Thus, net became the best place to hang out for a person like me! By the then, YM became a junk . So, I joined various FORUMS to get my skills worked , eventually I clicked my trip to " KTJ . IN " .( #This is an official website of Kshitij Fest)

Try as I might, I just couldn't put the unforgettable "KTJ " into the picture. True, I'm not much of a photographer .But even with my limitations surely I should have been able to capture at least some of beguiling charm of the scene I'd in front of me, :- A Mountain in I.I.T ... !! Shaked me for a moment ,but as net took its speed, the scenario slowly changed ,into a zealous eye-catche appearance of shiny, glorious ,Blood-Red dunlin sunrise with a pride ,spelling to the whole world , its the only source of brighter tomorrow .The setting was picture perfect. But, one thing which appalled me n others too was the Damn!! "Scroll-Bar". While, in this quest, E-Mouse actually realized us ,its worth ! Nevertheless , it was an another potential reason that made KTJ unique and hepp among all .

Viewing this spectacular site, gave me a passing thought , ' the world won't be the same from tomorrow '. Clicks after clicks my interest got flared-up for the myriad events ,but the will to be a participant was not yet ignited , b'cuz I knew its not possible for me to come to kgp and, apparently competition was undoubtly expected to be tuff..after all that was I.I.T ,a place, everyone wants to be!!

In the meanwhile , I come across a reply in the forum, by one of the organizers of Kshitij :-"Shilpa Naidu" ,A brilliant communicator, was so well to do managing with the participant queries, providing best possible ,aspiring and motivating solutions to participant query, that ,any 3rd person reading it ,would definitely like to be an active participant for the event. Same happened with me. The thing which impressed me most was her ,point-to-point justification, her outward approach n she had an extreme power to impress as an organizer and .also being a female she was outstandingly, rockin' among all the other organizers. So I posted a reply there, expecting she would reply ,but some other organizer replied ,called "Vivek Agarawal", who was different of a kind ,he eventually helped me opting for the type of event I suit too and gave some guidance also.A gud guy ,but unfortunately couldn't meet him in kgp.

"Believe in yourself ! Have faith in your abilities! Tremendous things happen to the believer!", these encouraging mantras were so well communicated by each n every organizers of Kshitij to all the participants , that life was actually felt in KTJ. Moreover ,it became an important work in a day to do , n doin' postings from queries to g.k quiz .A dedicated website which always put in best efforts to make participants enjoy all d time I remember a game ,which 'Angel'( a participant fr kgp) started it ,was all about a "Corrupt Wish"...an interesting game where reply to my entry was taken sarcastically...and of course it attracted many gossip-mongers too!.. Even had an inbox- fite to sought it out ,but was gr8 fun!

Another unforgettable organizer ,the one, I met in person was ,"Himangshu Jyoti Hazarika" :- When first read his name ,I wondered if he is Bhupendra Hazarika's Grandson...but he wasn't! A really active , fast n furious, assiduous person , was unique in all kind , he has a record of not exceeding his replies in more than 25 words and ,goes strictly with the asked issue ,no extra talks please ! He was the only one incredible' G.K Master' who never missed a single G.K Quiz ! I don't know how he manages ,but it was astonishing to see someone like this! Also a gud , actually mind-blowing leg puller & a hilarious dancer too, I guess..

Finally , the decision was whole-heartedly taken ,with heavy swings of enthusiasm to participate in an event in Kshitij .So, " Case-a-Franca" was opted , this event was the best thing ever happened in the history of Management Events. Other events were also worth n gud ,but to me "Case-a-Franca" satisfied from all ways ie. from formalities to topic.

In the midst of all, I met some greatest and important ppl of my life. First of all ,was "Adi" :- A participant for Kshitij from IIM, who gave me an honor to be his teammate,but I cud'nt be ,cuz got other teammate with me. Our YM meet was very contentious ,though he tried helping me , but his attitude flared me to scratch his mind.But now he is one of my eldest friend , my mentor, a member of my advisory bench, a genie, n he dares to scream at me with logics of course..A thorough Genteman [:)] a must meet guy. Another was "Jayant Sharma" :- one from Kgp itself...my meet with this guy can never ever be forgotten, we first had fite n then I annoyed him saying a D.O.G . A gr8 frnd of mine(# next editions will cover him) A cold-war..Then, another was "Pravin "- he met in KTJ forum only -a participant for kshitj fest fr VIZAG, "Jadda"-ya this guy sounded to me as if he is "Don of kgp"n i was very very scared , but he spoiled all my beliefs n thrills ..came out to b a nerd looking guy! "Arvin" ...he The Moderator of KTJ Forum , what was he ,still an unknown mystery. But was distinct to know someone like this. So , these all ppl were those i met in KTJ...but cud meet with Jayant only,in person.

After doing all hard work of a month, me & my teammate(# a big story behind this) ,posted our entries for the event, but I guess.. fate decided something else for us... and hence we met up with some dreadful illusions, tat our project is being used by some unknown 'burglar' participant. Yeah..this was against our Intellectual Property Rights ,so the movement was fired ,and me&my teammate got busy contacting each and every organizer we knew and to those all also we din't knew! The situation was tense ,exciting and fearful too ,and, fast responses were much much awaited.

Eventually, the Response List was expectedly topped by "Mr.Kapish Saraf",The G.Sec -this gentleman {[:)]}, is a true professional , one thing which impresses most, is his spontaneity & flow of thoughts. Don't know but it was amazing to see this guy ,who was 24*7 available for queries to be efficiently solved .For eg. ,even if u mail him at 3 am in the morning u will receive his reply by 3:07 am ,then and there.I tried this. So , I had pretty gud conversation with him, and, by the then ,he was considered a friend so me&teammate willingly planned to meet him in kgp Anyways, 'the meet' with him was astounding & a bit bizarre too ! .So, if anyone visits kgp for 1st time..he is a worth person to be known if u exist in this Planet!

Leaving the warrior field with the wall slogan " Amar Naam , Tomar Naam ,KGP Naam". The journey continues ,as we reach the wondrous land KGP ! Hope peace continues...[:)]
