Moonlighting - I strictly don't subscribe to it


Moonlighting? 
A strict NO for me.
Simply unthinkable. 

I remember boooooting out a Kolkatan in possibly his late 30s from Indian Roadie. He was the ubiquitous ITwala who was a pass out from some Ghanta Institute of Technology. He was extremely vocal in favour of MOONLIGHTING. Although he was pretty close to me, I was almost sure that he would backsta*b me sooner or later immediately after he got into a heated debate with me one evening on why he felt that moonlighting was his birthright.
I placed him under my virtual scanner. With almost 4 decades of experience in sales/ marketing/ communication, mingling around with thousands of people from all walks of life, I was certain that he just can't be an ethical person. Within about 6 months after that debate, he bared his fangs late one evening. It was clear that he reared an unprecedented level of grudge against me because I was not in the same page as him with respect to 'moonlighting'.
Needless to mention, I was Happy To Evict him from my professional initiatives after he stooped down to foul mouthing me on the phone. 

I am absolutely on the same page with Mr. Narayan Moorthy.

IPS N. Ambika broke all odds and cracked the UPSC exams to become an IPS officer


Married at 14 and a mother by 18, N Ambika's journey to becoming an IPS officer is a tale of unwavering resolve. 

Initially, a formal education seemed out of reach for her, but a Republic Day parade that she witnessed with her police officer husband changed everything.

The respect and authority of senior officers sparked her desire to follow a similar path.

Despite being a school dropout with young children, Ambika was determined.
She completed Class 10, and Class 12, graduated through distance learning and relocated to Chennai for better coaching.

Her supportive husband managed childcare, allowing her to focus on her studies. After three attempts, Ambika’s perseverance finally paid off in 2008 when she aced the IPS exam and achieved her dream!

Thereafter, he gave up. For Keshav Nandan Pandey things didn’t quite work out as planned. Instead of returning to his village, he decided to change direction. He started a makeshift roadside bookstall in 2019 to serve the students in the same coaching ‘mandi’ where he had once studied.
