Things I Learned in First Year of College | The Story of My Engineering Life

After clearing 12th exam and appearing for entrance exam we all have the dream to enjoy our college life, also in my case all things happened in their sequence little late but everything happened  and it has been almost a year since I entered the college. In this journey of one year I have learnt many things which I want to share with you all.  1.Intialization is Important In my first year I have tried many things which includes photography, poetry, blog writing etc. but the most important step was initial one, once I started the things I wanted to do, I started enjoying it and after that everything went is smoothly and pleasantly. Even my initial interaction with many people in college were started by me it was little hard but once they got to know me everything went interestingly.  2.Interaction is Necessary Interaction with people around you makes confident, because at the end you know something about them. It's initialisation can be little difficult as it was in my ca...

Future Technology Needs for India - 2047 | Article on Azaadi ka Amrit Mahotsav in Hindi

 Azaadi ka Amrit Mahotsav " The only way you survive is you continuously transform into something else " : Ginny Rometty Written by Anuj Singh Tomar , 8th sem , EE ' परिवर्त्तन ' मृत्यु से भी बड़ा सत्य है ।  दो लाख से अधिक वर्षों के मानव इतिहास ने हर सदी में परिवर्तन के सत्य को जाना है । हर बदलाव का लक्ष्य मानव जीवन को सुगमता प्रदान करना होता है । पहले सिंचाई के लिए नहर व बरसात पर निर्भर रहने वाला किसान आज नई नई टेक्नोलॉजी का उपयोग कर खेतों की सिंचाई करता है । अपने पड़ोस की मंडी में कौड़ियों के भाव में फसल बेचने को विवश किसान आज भारत के किसी भी हिस्से में अपनी फसल को उचित दाम पर बेच सकता है । ऐसे ही सैकड़ों जीवंत उदाहरण टेक्नोलॉजी की जरूरत  को महिमामंडित करते हैं। आजाद भारत की जरूरत रोटी , कपड़ा और मकान थी पर आधुनिक भारत की जरूरत शिक्षा , रोजगार व स्वास्थ्य है  । आधुनिक भारत के सपने को साकार करने के लिए हर व्यक्ति का शिक्षित होना आवश्यक है । शिक्षा रोजगार का स्त्रोत है , शिक्षा इनोवेशन का स्त्रोत है , शिक्षा दीनता - हीनता को खत्म करने का रामबाण है । आधुनिक भारत को ...
