All the characters in this story are real any resemblance to a person living or dead is purely intentional
I am going to narrate few of the incidents which happened to me few days back and how it created a mess in my workplace
This happened probably when I bought a new toothpaste after getting influenced tele advertising companies used to publicize a lot
Every morning when I brushed my teeth in front of the mirror the smell of the paste did some unusual thing to me, I became different character every day.
One day I became Maharaja Akbar .. I went to office dressed in mythological attire . As I reached the office I found guards waving flags at the entrance and durban shouting be alert king akbar is coming.
Later my manager came and asked me about the work which he gave yesterday, since I was smelling a rose I recited him a romantic poem
After that I went to darbar and being a art fanatic myself I called all the praja "employees" to witness the quwalli , and participate in mughle idol competition.
In the evening I had to take a call with Jim Chang He asked for code review Instead I ordered my troops to attack ..Unfortunately we lost the client
===
I hated family soaps a lot, specially ekta kapoor , next day I became Ekta kapoor ..... Went to sets to coordinate the shooting , I ordered that tulsi .... the women who has become the idol bahu will die today and not to be bron again in kahani ghar ghar ki episode and from now onwards there will no funda of getting married and divorced again and again. It was also decided by me that from now onwards all the new serials will not began with K but with "S" with theme being sci-fiction On this day I guess I was blued eye boy of all the husbands in India and simultaneously enemy of all the wives.
===========
I read comics and watched super heroes movies a lot So when next day ( it was weekend) I brushed my teeth I became Gajhodhar- The spit man ... Indian Super Hero. He has only one attire a smaal cloth which we call gamcha in hindi , gajhodhar was geting late for the movie show so he used his gamcha to fly straight to the CSM mall , He took his roommate sanghta with him , who go scared about flying in the sky When we reached the mall everyone left the movie and came to look us , media was there in a moments star news zee tv all were they . They said we have got another krish here, i became angry and shouted I am not krish i am Gajhodhar - the spit Man and i spitted on their van and it was all flooded in moments. For the whole day we were the centre of attraction of the world. People started asking me to show my powers , i declined to show them my powers because they are to be used for good purposes .

On monday i forgot to brush my teeth and I was the real Nitesh and went office :( My managers shouted at me , they scolded me they rebuked me. I was feeling sorry , i had regrets ... Regrets of not doing brush that day and prepared plans to being hitle the other day
Once upon a time in hot and humid jungle there lived an elephant, she was big, slow and lumbering history. She used to talk nostalgically about her glorious past and the others animals used to comment that it was long ago. One day she fell ill and the veterinarians suggested her that she had to change the way of her living otherwise she had to sell her ivory tusk to live. She declined to see and started to change and slowly that elephant has started to transform into tiger. It has started roaring; stripes are coming on its body it is transforming into a tiger. All small and big animals are coming to look and admire the giant elephant
Any guesses who the elephant is and who are the big animals??
It’s our own India and big animals are developed countries of the world.
India is roaring with full strength; economy is showing highest growth rates in the world
But still...Whyall of usare afraid?!!!
Because………..may bewe are not following the proven path of development
First of all what is that unique path of development the land of Buddha is following and what are the advantages we have!!!!!!!!!
1. Democracy
Government of the people and by the people
Development is looking ahead towards the future but democracy is making plans for the coming elections. It’s very difficult to make plans for development under democracy. Take the example of the sealing drive in Delhi. Many houses were illegally developed and there was illegal business going on in the residential areas but now many of those areas are legalized under new master plan .You know Why? because elections are coming up
Let’s discuss which path other countries took:US growth, which occurred in an era when they used to exploit the blacks as slaves. Similarly Japan was also growing at 5-6% before the World War 2 when it was under autocracy.
We have so many political parties so its obvious that there will be hindrance to any move related to development.
If we are successful in becoming developed we will be the first country to do so under universal adult franchise that means having voting rights for all.
2. Growth led by domestic consumption:
With growing incomes of the middle class Indian’s spending power has increased and this is creating a huge demand of products in India itself. People are spending a lot instead of saving all the money.
China and Taiwan were doing just the opposite when they were at this stage as India is now, they were saving instead of spending.. Much of the demand in the east asian countries was from other countries i.s these economies were more export-led i.e. exporting a lot of manufactured goods.
For India its both way internal as well as external demand
3.Growth driven by service sector
Countries followed the path of becoming a manufacturing hub by and slowly moving up to high knowledge requiring products like automobiles, electronics and services. This path was followed by countries like US, China, Japan, Korea etc., But India is following a different path. . It is using the skills of its burgeoning educated middle class in service sector like – information technologies telecommunications, airlines, banking etc and then moving to the manufacturing line. Services sector comprises of 53.6% of GDP even though we have got 60% of our population employed in agriculture
Does this step was by intention or by chance??
I think it was by chance because When East Asian economies and China opened up there was huge demand for the manufacturing products so they followed the tried and tested export - led path and when India opened up its economy demand for services was growing and above all services sector required less infrastructure development.
4. Demographics
Demographics is a shortened term for 'population characteristics' like race, age , income , mobility etc. Though large chunk of our population is without primary education but a demographics shift in coming decade will cover this up. Education revolution will boost the labor force and increase the savings rate as more people will be working. By 2020 median age of our population will be 28.7 years compared to 38-40 of countries like china , usa , uk and japan.
Now comes to big question
Will we be successful?
Elephant’s dirty skin has started to shine; dust is fading away, though still chunk of dirt is there
We have to stop spending more then our revenues i.e. control budget deficit, there is a need for better transportation system, roads airports have to come up fast.
Laziness and slow working style of the government officers has to be opposed
Poverty and illiteracy has to be compressed to a vanishing point.
This doesn’t mean we cannot contribute anything
We can
First of all we have to work hard to make the elephant roar.
We have to keep the government on their toes and oppose any wrong move by the government authorities
We have to step forward just like we did in Jessica Lal Case
Moreover there is a need for more tatas , mittals , ambanis ……….. and I am sure there will be few like them among uss …….
You You You ……… you all women have to dream big like icici women, like kiran majumdar , indira noyee ….. You have to become goddesses of big things.
Finally With our free press, democracy, private sector, entrepreneurs, middle class we will surely become not only tiger but a Liger Lion + Tiger.

Sorry for not writing regularly here, busy writing on sportolysis
This is my first speech in the InterraIt toastmasters club
I love you I love you I love you
Friends these are the three words I couldn't utter when they were actually required reason lack of confidence
Mr Toastmaster, fellow toastmasters and guests. My purpose of joining TM is to gain confidence more confidence and more confidence.
Friends there has been no valentine in my life till now, there were only infatuations in school as well as college days. But just like any other lover I used to try to sit at a convenient position where I could watch my beloved and was always searching for reasons to talk to her. But couldn't say I love U : So friends now you have come to know that I have never uttered the words I love you, PAUSE what should I tell you now!!
I will tell you about my two self one in the real world that is the REAL Nitesh and the other being e_nitesh or virtual Nitesh..
In real life Nitesh is passionate about sports be it playing or watching sports events. I enjoy playing and it has helped me in learning qualities like team spirit, leadership and motivational skills. I think I can give some tips to dravid as well.
Meet my wife
Real nitesh believes in diffusing his creative energies by trying to do different things. This quality once landed me on stage playing part of dhritrashtra in a play called "KBD" (kaun banega drapaudi pati). Funniest part in the play was that, a 6feet 3 inch guy was incarnated as Draupadi and a feeble underweight friend was given divine form of bheema. :
Another shot in my repertoire of skills is taking part in organizing events. It all started at the ground level, learning the process and slowly I moved over to bigger responsibility like handling the responsibly of event manager of our college annual fest a 10Lk budgeted event. These hobby has many positives like it increased my interaction with people of various kind and I learned many management skills also.
Thanks to 24 hour lan in college I started an e-life. Utilized my surfing habit in a productive way by starting a blog in which I write about new technological developments in web world like new gadgets new web2.0 websites.
Coalesced my passion of sports and writing habit by starting a sports blog sportolysis with my friends. Recently got surprised success when it was nominated in top 5 sports blogs in the country.
I am sure sports personalities visit my blog regularly to improve their game. Suggestions are open for sports minister also :
Sometimes, struggles are exactly what we need in our life. If we were to go through our life without any obstacles, we would be crippled. Failures came in my life but not lots or you can say I don't count them as struggles or failures.
Normally you fall from high, this happened with me during the first year when from 90+% in 12th I came down to 2 / 4 pointer, these type of failures/struggles urges you to give the extra E (effort) to come out successfully. Failures are stepping stones to success and these set backs made me mentally strong to face any kind of problems.
College life was fun some attending lectures in a big movie hall like lecture theatre gossiping till wee hours Some has rightly said
You run life inside the college gate Life runs you outside the college gate.
I had completed one marathon of my life and entered into the biggest one. I am happy that here I have mentors and very good persons to guide me in this stage of my life. I am sure I will achieve my dreams and goals
After giving my ice breaker I have gained enough confidence to say I love you , I wish I had given my speech before 14th feb, I could have had a valentine.
Japanese have again showed us they are way ahead in technology. This time it is natural breast enlargement instead of silicon implant. Scientists in Japan claim to be able to increase the size of a woman's breasts using fat and stem cells. Idea is to take some fat from the body mix it with some stem cells and inject into the mammaries.
The enhanced breasts are soft and natural, so they are the patient's "real" breasts

Scientists all over the world are treating this report with caution.
