A cultural fest is an amalgamation of various cultural flavors and hard work by the students that comes together into a vibrant mix of colors and moods resulting in fun and frolic that lasts for days in any Institution. Priyadarshini Institute of Engineering and Technology’s interpretation of this is called “UDAAN”. Udaan 2013-14 was celebrated on New Year’s Eve by the I.T. Department of the college which made the celebrations even better and merrier.

The Dancing Team

A twist in the traditional tale arrived like a bolt from the absolute blue as this year UDAAN was celebrated individually by each of the Engineering branches which made the fun last longer than it actually did in all of the previous years. The sports events were also culminated in this new brand of Fest philosophy which saw all the branches actively participating in the sports events leading to a rise in the competitive spirits and tough matches being going right to the wire to awarding the winners in all the sports categories. The cultural side of the festival saw all the branches organizing their own versions of UDAAN.

Organizing the fest on a branch level was a revelation for all because this new experiment to split the event to the departments was as much fun as it was a challenge. All disciplines organized the event in their own exposition of UDAAN from the 26th of December to the last on 31st December which was by the I.T.  Department under the guidance of Prof. Pallavi Chaudhari, organizing Head and Prof. Sushma Ghode, supervising Head.

CG Dethe

The last event of the proceedings was hosted by the I.T.  Department on the 31st of December which was the most successful pertaining to many reasons. The foremost of them being that the department retained the original name UDAAN weighing in to the emotional connect to the fest of the students as well as the teachers belonging to the Department , the others being the organizational compactness and the variety of the performances incorporated in the event . Not only the students, but the teachers were also an active participating entity in their event. The event saw some scintillating performances by the students and some spellbinding impromptu acts by the teachers on students’ request which made the day even more unforgettable. The specialty feature of the event being that it was solely organized by the students of the Department and teachers helped with their valuable guidance.

The event had a variety of performances like singing, acting, dances and included surprises like games which gained appreciation as well as the participation of teachers leading to wholehearted appreciation coming from the entire senior faculty including Dr. C. G. Dethe, Principal, PIET. Gaining an edge over all was the spectacular talent of IT students coming from the best singers and dancers from the college rising up to the occasion.

The day ended with the students dancing and celebrating within themselves and then parting with warm New Year wishes to each other with lots of lovely memories of the day in their hearts.

Slug: Priyadarshini Institute of Engineering & Technology hosts “NCOAT-NIRMITI-2014

Nagpur Today: The innovative, creative talents and capacities of students was evident in the creations and inventions that were displayed as models in the Priyadarshini Institute of Engineering & Technology hosts “NCOAT-NIRMITI-2014. Some of the important and very appealing inventions that caught the eye are explained herewith.

The students of Yashoda Public Higher Secondary School have invented a crematorium that is run on solar power. If commercially made, this could save any civic body across the country a sizeable amount which is otherwise spent on diesel or electricity. The Diesel crematorium requires 22 litres fuel costing around Rs 1,000 per body, while the Electric Crematoriums use around 120 Kv for burning up a dead body. What the students have created could revolutionize the concept of environment-friendly cremation. This could save power, diesel, wood and all other paraphernalia used to cremate the dead.

The model named as Solar Crematorium that they have created has solar panels, back-up batteries and a circuit that enables the process of cremation. What appealed to all the guests, judges and the onlookers was that this is a very viable project that can be commercially made and set-up by every civic body. The Judge and the chief guest HoD of Chemistry, Government Institute of Science Dr Rashmi Bhatra said that if only the Mayor of NMC comes to witness the exhibition, then he make think in terms of establishing a real one in the city. The students who innovated the Solar Creamatorium are Ashutosh Bankar, Nikhil Dhandar and Akash Uikey.

A  Super Cycle –a Self reliant machine

The students of Class 11^th of Bhavan’s (Ashti Branch)  created a wonderful Super  Cycle which can be used to generate electricity, store electricity, Give water to fields, perform crop cutting, refill the threads for  handloom machine etc. The students who invented this machine, while speaking with Nagpur Today very enthusiastically explained how their model can be very useful in villages where there are frequent power cuts. The traditional method to draw water from wells and generators to produce electricity is costly. Manual labour for crop cutting is pretty tedious. To give an alternate solution and to combine all these efforts into their super cycle will be very beneficial cost efficient and easily available.

The process is very simple and can be performed by one or two people by peddling the cycle. India is a agriculture dependent country and this cycle will give a huge help to farmers with very low cost, which they can easily afford.  The students who invented the Super Cycle are Yashasvi Singh, Sumegh Dhole and Abhsihek Pandey- They were guided by their teacher Samir Khule.

Project to overcome the drawbacks while installing languages on system such as C, C++, Java, VB.net

Information technology students of Priyadarshni Polytechnic have made a ‘web based editor’ for  C, C++, Java, VB.net and designed to overcome the drawbacks that occurs in installing various languages on system such as C, C++, Java, VB.net. while installing languages on system, it slows the system and there is difficulty in configuring  the compiler.It reduces both hardware & software requirement , informed students Deepak Yadav, Manish Singh, Akash Gorle and Rahul Kolhe.

Phone Point Pen (P3)

Students of Dharampeth Polytechnic Rajat, Vishal, Kushal and Akhilesh presented a very interesting Phone Point Pen (P3) having android application which is used to draw letter, sketch using mobile phone accelerator. It can be used to teach small children how to write letters with a feature of wireless mouse using mobile phone. It can also be used for medical purpose like hand deficiency.

Electricity production from Human Feces, garbage in trains

In this model the students presented how electricity can be produced from human feces which get collected on railway tracks by installing a container in the train. At main junctions these waste, feces and papers get collected in containers and from compost fertilizers from this electricity can be produced. Waste papers too can be recycled from railway station and in turn pollution can be avoided.  The students who invented the Power creation from Human Feces and other waste material are Uday Dohale, Pranalee Meshram and Sweety Surwanshi.

Many other innovative ideas and projects were presented by various students from different schools of Nagpur. Principal of  PIET C.G. Dethe and Director O.B. Bihade, while speaking with Nagpur Today said that this is 9^th consecutive year of the conference and this year we invited students from 27 different schools to present their ideas and interact with engineering faculty and students  and get the feeling of the engineering environment .

Targeting the 100 crore middle class population, best way to be successful, was the opinion of chief guest Managing Director of Global Logic Company Shashikant Chaudhary at the opening ceremony of the Consortium 2014, the annual entrepreneurship conference, held at VNIT campus and organized by the Entrepreneurship Cell on January 10, 2014.

Nagpur Today.

The Consortium 2014, the annual entrepreneurship conference, was held at VNIT campus organized by the Entrepreneurship Cell on January 10, 2014.

The Chief Guest, Managing Director of Global Logic Company Shashikant Chaudhary opined that If anyone wants to start up and eventually become a successful entrepreneur, he or she should concentrate on first identifying the problems that exist in the society today in various spheres of life or various professions. If one can find the solution to the identified problem and can create it or mass produce it and market it properly, one can certainly become a successful entrepreneur, stressed Shashikant Chaudhary.

“This entire exercise would also involve a certain essential ingredient in one’s psyche or attitude. One should be passionate in achieving the dream of the particular field of expertise and in turn a successful entrepreneur,” he said.

Chaudhary stressed on one very vital marketing strategy which one should envision when one starts off an entrepreneurship. The bulk of middle class population which numbers almost 100 crore offers a very good target for purchasing or utilizing what the entrepreneur creates. He also added that this is a very favorable time for the startup of any entrepreneurship. The socio-economic conditions are favorable as never before and would continue to be so for the next 10 years. What one can encash now can never be done in future, Chaudhary asserted.

Earlier in the programme, the chief guest Shashikant Choudhary, Director (VNIT), Dr. Narendra Chaudhary, Prof Peshwe, G.P. Singh, Vijay Patil and students of core committee lit the traditional lamp to mark opening of the Consortium 2014.

Dr. Narendra Chaudhary elaborated on what type of skills should be imparted to students to inculcate entrepreneurship in them. He asked the students to not run after jobs instead  create entrepreneurship culture in colleges.

Prof. Yerpude, speaking on the occasion, echoed the similar views and informed students that the future will be of entrepreneurs. Students should focus on self employment and should focus on setting up of small scale industry for start up.

E-Summit, a highlight event of Consortium ’14, the entrepreneurship conference, is a great platform for the students to interact with esteemed academics and experienced entrepreneurs. This year, the theme of E-summit is ‘Promoting Technical Startups’.

In an exclusive tete-e-tete with Nagpur Today, on the sidelines of the Conclave, Vice President and Head of Training, Max Life Insurance, Mumbai Sandeep Mishra, said that first of all one should take pride in what you do. The Sales Man’s job is no way lesser crucial in any way than any other profession. He opined that there is a need to understand the perspective of the immediate boss / supervisor and the organization. “One should strive to understand and be sensitive to what the boss/supervisor is asking them to do. One should know the market scenario and other factors that have led a boss or a supervisor to ask them to do something purposeful,” Mishra stated.

Mishra dwelt on the need to have empathy for 1. Supervisor. 2. Organization. 3. Customer. And above all, one should have a need to have an ego drive. “This necessarily means that one should take the task personally in a positive way. One should ask oneself ‘How do I take it’? There should be a strong inner desire to excel.  One cannot excel without an inner desire to achieve the target. One should follow the principles of work harder on oneself than on the job, as advocated by Marsha Goldsmith ‘What got you here, won’t get you there’.  This will ensure continuous self development,” Mishra Stressed.

The Vice President and Head of Training, Max Life Insurance, Mumbai Sandeep Mishra spoke toNagpur Today after addressing the participants about “DNA of a Salesperson” at the National Sales Conclave 2014.

“Every Sales Personnel should enjoy what they are doing for best results. Sales are a process of persuading customers to purchase the company’s product or services.” Mishra explained Sales with very practical way and day to day incidents which made the session lively. He said that sales are introduced to us in our life from the early age. When you get things done your way like a child gets chocolate somehow. Sales are nothing but chasing numbers. He said that we all chase numbers in every sphere of our life. The way he explained the nuances of sales will certainly make every participant fall in love with the Salesmanship.
