Nikunja is no more with us

COVID has done some irrepairable damages and one more such happened today when Nikunja passed away in Aswini Hospital, Cuttack. Had diabetes, heart problems and had undergone renal transplant, but as human beings we had expected him to survive. This didn't happen and we pray God to provide all courage to his family to overcome the loss. May his soul rest in peaace.

Google Meet on14th June- a report by Upendra

Friends,

Here is briefly what we did in the Google Meet of our batchmates last evening, in which Ajay Upadhyaya, Bidhu, Pradipta, Bijay, Bibhuti(P), Mahesh, Rashmi, Laxminibas, Badri, Baikuntha and I participated.

1. We discussed a lot on the possible factors responsible for Sushant Rajput's suicide. Ajay Upadhyaya gave us valuable insights into the possibilities and briefed us on the possible psychological implications of the Corona pandemic. Some of us were inquisitive about the possible influence of Covid-19 on his suicide. Others were keen to find out if this could be used as a learning experience for use in real life situations. 

2. Badri suggested that we should have a regular pre-decided schedule of these meets so that one could plan to join them. It was the majority opinion to continue holding them impromptu till we get over the initial hiccups.

3. I suggested that we should have a web site for our batchmates where we could show case anything and everything that we wish to share with each other, with our extended circles and lastly with the whole world in a much more presentable, non-perishable and easily accessible format. It will also allow us to use more useful functionalities of the Google Meet. The possibilities will be ever-expanding. All present were very enthusiastic about this suggestion and I volunteered to make a modest beginning in this direction. I shall be very soon soliciting inputs from all our batchmates for a successful outcome in this endeavour.

4. Other than the above, for the larger part of the meeting, we had a lot of guli-khatti and enjoyed each other's virtual company.

5. We ended with a resolution to meet again as soon as possible. Overall, it was fantastic. That should stimulate more numbers to join next time.
