Inspirational journey of a Tribal boy, Dr. Rajendra Bharud

 

A truly inspirational journey of a Tribal boy. May your tribe grow!

On India's 74th Independence Day, motivate yourself with this inspiring story of human grit...

"Hi, I am Dr. Rajendra Bharud. I was born in Samode Village in Sakri Taluka. A Bhil tribal. My father had passed away before I was born and there was no man of the house, so to speak. We were steeped in poverty. There was no money even to take photographs and so till date I don't know how my father looked. No land, no property. We used to live in a hut made of sugarcane leaves. 

But Maay (mom) was made of sterner stuff and never sat brooding over our condition. She had two sons to take care of and so she started working towards that. 

She started making liquor from flowers and selling it. Men used to come to our hut and consume the liquor. She later told me that, as an infant, sometimes when I cried she used to give me a couple of drops of the same liquor so that I would sleep off. Cos it was business time and she didn't want to disturb the customers. As I grew up, I started running errands to get peanuts or such snacks for the customers. 

Maay was a determined woman and she ensured that both of us went to school. I used to go to the zilla parishad school and though I had no pens or books (no money to buy) I enjoyed studying. We were the first kids from our tribe/village to go to school and nobody gave education any importance. 

Once, during exams I was studying and a customer asked me to get him some peanuts and I bluntly refused. He laughed at me saying 'as if you are gonna be a doctor or engineer'. I was hurt. But Maay retorted telling him that I will. Maay's confidence gave me a certain will and determination to pursue studying and I decided to give it all I can. 

Later on I got admission for CBSE in another school, in Akkalkuva taluka, 150 kms away from our village and I had to move there for further studies. Maay had come to drop me and both of us cried a lot as she bid me goodbye when going back home. 

Being on my own was difficult but I realised that I should not waste this opportunity. That gave me more determination to make it good, made me study harder and that resulted in me getting 97% in 12th. I got admission in  Mumbai's G S Medical college on merit and received several scholarships. That took care of my education and hostel fees and Maay used to send me some money for my sundry expenses. She continued her liquor business as that was the only source of income for us.

As studies continued, I also decided to appear for UPSC exams and so in the final year of MBBS, I was studying for 2 exams even as my internship was on. As far as Maay was concerned, she knew I was studying to become a doctor. She had no idea about anything else. What is UPSC, or why one gives that exam, how it will help etc was all beyond her small world. I wanted to be a collector and she didn't know about even the local officials like a tehsildar.

Finally as the year ended, I had my MBBS degree in one hand and the results of having cracked the UPSC in the other hand. And as I came back home to our small village, quite a few important people had come to welcome me home. Political leaders, the district collector, local officials, all coming to congratulate me. Maay was non plussed and didn't understand what had happened. I told her that I had become a doctor. She was really happy. I also told her that I would not be practicing medicine as I had also become a Collector now. She didn't know what that was but realised that it was something big.  In fact none of the villagers realised what it meant. Though all of them were happy that 'our Raju' has become big and some even congratulated me for becoming a conductor!

I am now posted in Nandurbar district as a District Collector and Maay is now with me. There's a lot to do here as this is a fairly backward district with lots of adivasi and tribal population. And I look forward to building all the necessary infrastructure for their development. 

A lot many times I am asked as to how I reached here in spite of all the hurdles in my path. Right from childhood it was a struggle. Eating twice a day was a big deal. Our toys were mango seeds or sticks. Swimming in the river and climbing the hills was how we spent the childhood. That made me physically and mentally strong. Who was with me? My strength - my Maay. And the locals, who were all equally poor. They too went hungry like us, they too played the same games. So the concept of being poor never really touched me. 

Till I came to Mumbai for studies. The difference was stark. But I never envied the well off or cursed my luck. All I realised was that if my situation or condition had to change, I will have to do it myself. And I studied, excercised, studied. Yes, I missed a lot that normal kids or teenagers get in life, but I prefer to look at what I have got now. 

A Bhil tribal boy, Rajendra Bharud, an IAS officer at the age of 31, first from the tribe, my village, my area. Today I have everything that I could have dreamed of. 

And most importantly, after seeing me rise from the small village to this position has created an awareness among my people of what they can do or achieve. That itself is a huge reward."

Sisters Kinjal Singh (IAS) and Pranjal Singh (IRS) are the real pride of India

Kinjal SINGH – A fiery IAS officer of the nation who literally don’t care any Political lobbies (born and brought up in The UTTAR PRADESH).

Her name is enough to send chills down the spine of even the most dishonorable ones. This is not a plot adapted from a Bollywood story but a real life story that inspires the masses. In the year 1982, Kinjal’s father Deputy Superintendent of Police KP Singh was shot dead by his own colleague in Gonda (Uttar Pradesh).  Kinjal was only six months old at that time when her father was killed and her sister was still in her mother’s womb. DSP’s last words were, “Please don’t kill me. I have two little children”. Kinjal and her younger sister Pranjal sacrificed everything during their childhood days to continue their studies. Kinjal got admission in the prestigious Lady Shri Ram College in Delhi. During the 1st semester of graduation, Kinjal came to know her mother was suffering from cancer and will soon die. One day, Kinjal promised her mom that one day both the sisters will crack the UPSC examination. The confidence in her tone gave Vibha Devi the much-needed mental peace and she died a few days later. Kinjal had to return back to Delhi after two days of her mother’s demise for her examination. Kinjal coped with all the difficulties and won the gold medal for becoming the topper in Delhi University. After finishing her graduation, Kinjal called her younger sister Pranjal to Delhi and rented an apartment in Mukherjee Nagar. There the two sisters started their preparation to crack the the aforementioned examination. While other girls used to visit their friends and family at regular intervals, the sisters always remained focused on their studies and did not go to their hometown even during the festive season. The sisters became each other’s strength and inspired each other continuously. The results were announced and both the sisters cleared the examination in the same year. Kinjal Singh (IAS) and Pranjal Singh (IRS). Their determination shook the judiciary of India. The Uttar Pradesh court gave death sentence to three policemen charged with the murder of the DSP KP Singh. After 31 years of struggle, on June 5th, 2013 the CBI special court in Lucknow gave the due punishment to all the 18 policemen responsible for the killing of DSP KP Singh. Kinjal has proved that the daughters are no way less than the sons. Kinjal Singh’s success is an inspiration to every Indian.

Bhagwat Prasad Pandey, MP Police Officer (Episode 07)

Bhagwat Prasad Pandey, MP Police Officer (Episode 07)  reprimanded a man on the road who went out to buy 'pudina' during lockdown at Sidhi, Madhya Pradesh. A few more people spotted on the road were reprimanded, too. 

The Indian Roadie police officer preferred to patrol the roads in his official Mahindra Bolero to enforce the Covid-19 lockdown instead of sitting tight at office. 
Every road travel enthusiast should nurture the no nonsense qualities of the police officer to be safe on the road.

Teamwork helps

Precision teamwork in a racing track is the key to success. It's no different in other spheres of life. 

3 Idiots - The true meaning of education

Teachers and students alike should take a refresher course on the true meaning of 'education' with an open mind.

Learn it all from '3 Idiots', the movie.
Education is what helps in life, not the qualification, as is the widely accepted belief.
Unfortunately, in India most teachers get recruited in schools and colleges for their qualifications and not their education 😡 

How many of our teachers are true mentors of their students?
Although a movie, the reality has been pointed out in no uncertain terms. Most of our snooty teachers who bask in the glory of their mugged up and/ or plagiarized qualifications will waste no time in terming the insight as utter nonsense.

Bhagwat Prasad Pandey, MP Police Officer (Episode 03) - Humour while policing on the roads in Sidhi, MP

Humour, empathy and display of humanity while policing on the road in Sidhi, a small semi-rural town near Singrauli in Madhya Pradesh has fetched Bhagwat Prasad Pandey the much needed results plus a lot of personal branding and reputation management ever since April 2020.

He is seen patrolling the roads of Sidhi    and the surrounding villages driving his official Mahindra Bolero from early morning to late evening (and at times stretching to the wee hours of the morning) without displaying any fatigue and/ or irritation. The officer performs on self motivation. He doesn't work on the hypocritic inspiration of his political bosses.

The daunting challenge before him is to:
- make the poor semi-educated and illiterate population aware of the dangers of highly contagious Coronavirus.
- keep the largely rural population confined to their homes without the use of brutal force that police forces across the nation are known for.
- make people aware of the need to wear masks or wrap up the face.
- make arrangements for free food and essential supplies for the needy during the nationwide lockdown w.e.f March 25, 2020.
- ensure healthcare and quarantine facilities for anyone who needs it.
- Etc, etc, etc.

Live videos of Bhagwat Prasad Pandey on Facebook and YouTube and his style of policing (read, management) has become extremely popular with the Hindi speaking populace in MP, UP, Bihar, Chhattisgarh, Rajasthan, Haryana, NCR and elsewhere in India.

People in the small town have been following his instructions out of love and respect. Residents of the town and adjoining villages have come forward to lend a helping hand to supplement his efforts.

Bhagwat Prasad Pandey is our Indian Roadie of the difficult times.

With responsible and self motivated 'coronawarriors' like Bhagwat Prasad Pandey in the forefront, 'INDIA JITEGA, CORONA HAREGA'.

Bharat Mata Ki Jai 🙏

Fellow Indian Roadie fans and members, please join me in writing a few words to keep the adrenaline in the young officer running high.

Indian Railways blew horn at 5pm on 2020-03-22 during Janta Curfew

The #QualifiedUneducated  #fiberandu #Hinduphobic #ModiHaters will never understand the positive vibes that the exercise involving blowing of horns by trains across India during #JantaCurfew at 5pm on Sunday, 2020-03-22 sent out. Most railway workers can't afford the luxury of working from home.

P.S: Exceptions and a propensity to act stupid and going overboard will always exist in a diverse country like India. The policymakers will very soon have carrot and stick strategies to straighten idiots who don't understand issues in simple terms.
