 Gautam, I see from your hobby, you listen to Hindi songs, which songs of Hindi? Usually from the film industry, usually from the films, from the Hindi films. So they could either be old songs or they are also from... Old songs from where? Old songs as well as Hindi songs. From? From the Indian Hindi films. Hindi films, listen to Hindi film songs. What is the difference between the old songs and the new songs? The newer songs, there is more focus on the beats. I mean, they are more inclined towards being at a faster pace compared to the older songs. And probably the nature of the lyrics has also changed. In older times, there was more emphasis on the lyrics. Now I think it's shifted towards beats and music. Old songs are mostly based upon classical raggots. That's the main thing, old songs. Before 70, from 1950 to 70, they were all based upon... Most of them are from classical raggots. Now, all beat and rhythm. Have you heard of national population registers? Yes, sir. What is that? So it is a database of all the residents that are living in the country. And that would include anyone who has been living for the past... Please be louder. The data set would include everyone who has been living in the country for the past 6 months. Or who is willing to live in the country in the future for the coming 6 months. The national population registers. Yes, sir. Okay. Why has Keral gone to the Supreme Court on Article 131? And many of the now, in Jharkhand or some other states, they have gone to... Punjab also. Punjab. Many, around 10 of them are opposing and some of them have already gone. So why they are going on to Article 131? Sir, the Article 131 Supreme Court has the original and exclusive jurisdiction which is it. Do any contact between the state and the union. So with regard to that, the states who are not favoured in the unions movement, the union movements move off CA, that is Citizenship Amendment Act. So to oppose that, they have moved to Supreme Court. But why they have gone? They should say, we will not work on that. They can say, why they have gone to Supreme Court on Article 131? It is original jurisdiction in the central and states and between states. Central and one state on one side and state or states on the three kinds of disputes. So why have they gone? This will not have gone. Because they are supreme in their jurisdiction. I will not do it. Sir, Citizenship is on the union list and the parliament is empowered to make law on that particular subject. And under Article... I am not able to recall the exact article but the states are compelled to... They are duty bound under the constitution to implement that act. So they don't have exclusions already over implementing that act. Is it 256? Partigan? Sir, I think it should be 365. If a centre gives a direction, a direction can be given regarding what? The central government can give a direction on what matters. A law is made on... The legislative powers are distributed as per Schedule 7. Union list, state list and component list. So what power the central government will give a direction to the states? The executive power of the union. It is overpowering over the states. The executive powers are co-extensive with the legislative powers. Only in those matters it can give directions. Law and order, they cannot give. There are law and order states of it. So if the state doesn't obey, then what will happen? Sir, there could be a claim of a later of constitution machine in the state. What? There could be a case of a later of constitution machine in the state. The administration cannot be carried on in accordance with the constitution. Who is that? Sir, I am... It is 365. It is 365. 356 says that when the governor or president is of the opinion that it cannot be carried on, then it will be imposed. But 365 says in which situation it will be legitimate, legal for the president, to hold that the government of the state cannot be carried on in accordance with the constitution. That is the only example. When the center gives a direction, executive direction, then if they do not obey, it will be legal for the president to hold that the administration of the state cannot be carried on in accordance with the constitution. So this article 56 picks up and the state government can be dismissed. Okay, these are the articles you should gloss up. Okay, please, fine. Well, Gautam, you are from Haridwar. What is the significance of Haridwar? Obviously it has reduced significance for Hinduism. There is an organization of Kumbh Mela. It is one of the four cities where Kumbh Mela is organized. And secondly, so it has got to... From the point of view of the economy, it has got a lot of tourism potential. That is one of the significance. That is the other significance, the economic point of view. But I think majorly it is the religious... What exactly Haridwar means? The word Haridwar has got significance. What does it mean? Say if we break it down, it is hard. So hard means Shiva and Dwar is gateway. And it is gateway to something. It is gateway to some river. Actually from the hills, in Haridwar only the gland just flows from the foothills. So until then it is all along the hills. So let's say Haridwar is the Haridwar and the Shikesh. Then that is where it flows in an almost plain. And from there of course it flows. So that is the entrance of Haridwar. Haridwar is the place where Dwar, Hari, Dwar, Dwar is entrance. That is how it is there. It is the entrance to the where the gland reaches the plains. You have been born in Vareli? Yes sir, but I have never lived there. You have never lived there? But your parents were there? My maternal grandparents were there. So you know anything about Vareli? No sir. So I think you should pick up something about Vareli. Vareli is an important railway station. Besides that what are the other important things in Vareli also? The father is working in the public sector as general manager. And you have got YNGC-Videsh now. What is the role of YNGC-Videsh? For securing the energy interests of the country in foreign countries. What do they do? They are related with dwelling and research. Finding out the oil and gas exploration purposes in foreign countries. In collaboration with the foreign countries. There was an issue in Gepna. It is the YNGC-Videsh. I don't know if you are aware of that. I think YNGC-Videsh can go and also not only find oil well there. But they can also do operation. As per the rule of that particular country. It is the YNGC-Videsh. Arm of YNGC will probably be outside the country. So that is something about that also. If you go and YNGC and YNGC because your father is working there. You have indicated a ZM in the public sector. So the question can come on that. You have been in that wise German fellowship. What is it you find about that? It is a program for... What does it mean? It is German I know. What is it? Sir I can't recall the exact German words. But the English translation is... You should know. When you have mentioned here that wise scholarship. What is the... What is that acronym? It is just like G-I-Z. So that is also an acronym for that particular... It must be something called G-I-Z. G-I-Z is German. So what is that scholarship? You just know this. And what did you do in that? That exchange program for some... What exactly did you do in that project there? Yes sir it was a research project. What project did you do? It was a research project on ultra high performance money. I think the voice is little low. I am not able to hear. So it was a research project on ultra high performance... Ultra? Ultra high performance concrete. Okay what exactly you will be finding? So you just about this project again... Five sentences or ten sentences you write down. What exactly was objective? What exactly you arrived at the end? Maybe for one or two months? How many months you did? Two and a half months. In the two and a half months period. What are the final findings of this project? So the final finding was that they were working on making the structures more leaner. So it was a part of that project. The entire project in search. But as per the... As per your whatever new project you did as a part of the project. Which must be the... See likely your other friends must have been also doing something. Or you are the only group doing. I was the only person who was associated with the project. So in that case for the two and a half months what exactly you did? And what was the result? You write down five or ten sentences. You remember that. That also what is the what does it mean at running? So that also you should try to see. This is an advantage for you. Because out of so many people you have been picked up. Because you had some very dumb luck. So that is why you have been picked up. And you got to do this project. You can impress the people. By stating about what exactly you did. Even if they ask about what is the tax correction. Immediately you can go to the next question. Say Kriya and then there is some option. In one or two sentences you can say. If they are interested you can further explain. But this is how you can take interview board to your advantage. Where you are strong. But for that you must be very clear about what you had done. And write down at... You have been in IIT tennis team also. Yes sir. And you played singles or doubles? Both. What is your strong thing? Service is good or where you are strong? I think my service is good. Service is good. Then of course who are the... Now the national champion for tennis. Who is the national champion? G Prasanna. G Prasanna and another... The voice is going down. It is not audible to me. The voice is going down. Whenever your confidence level is high your voice should come up. So if you are taking the voice down. Then it means your confidence level is low. So little more you have to practice on winning the... Because articulation is important. What good knowledge articulation is good. But your voice is low. Voice should impress the board. So that is... So what you were asking... Prasanna you said then? You were asking something. I was telling that voice is going down. So the... Who are the... In the national level tennis and international level. The greatest one Wimbledon. Australian Open. French Open. So if something is asked immediately you should be able to answer. Welcome Goyal. So you were born on 1119. Yes sir. The day before your birth. Important even to place in India. Sad development. In the year 1995. You were born on 1119. Just a day before birth. 31-95. Important even to place in modern India's history. I am sorry sir I am not... It was the assassination of the sitting Punjab Chief Minister of the USA. What is it? It was one of the catapults in Punjab in the USA. Everyone come in for the USA. The catapults have been there. It was one of the catapults in Punjab in the USA. It was a car bomb. Your second choice is IFS. See President Trump almost a year back has said that after the USA leaving Afghanistan India should take active part. It will not shut down. Meaning of it is that we should be there. It will change the interest in Afghanistan at least to the situation. Till the situation gets better. You support Indian troops entering Afghanistan. So far the standard India has taken with respect to Afghanistan has been that they have indulged in developmental aspect of instead of sending troops in Afghanistan they have rather chosen the path of training the Afghanistan troops to be capable enough. So India has taken the part of capability development in Afghanistan. Sir I think that is the question. The question is straight. Do you support India sending its troops armed troops to Afghanistan to stabilize the situation once the USA is in Afghanistan? It is almost certain now they are going to leave India as well as Pakistan. India has got its own interest in Afghanistan. We have got our own investments. Do you support India sending its troops to Afghanistan? Yes, I support it. Sir I think India should not send its troops to Afghanistan. Yes, how many send troops to other countries for peacekeeping purposes. Sometimes it will be on the rivers the rest of the countries. So why not in Afghanistan? Unless the Biasan government requests India. So if Afghanistan knew Afghan government or the sitting Afghan government will know it is India we can send our troops. Are you sure? Sir so stand. Sorry sir. When you stand I am asking. Sir even in that situation we should assist the geostrategic interests again and then we should take a call. But as of now because there has not been any... There is a basic difference between previous occasions when India has sent troops to various countries. And this time if it sends its troops to Afghanistan as per the limitations of the Afghanistan government there is a basic difference. What is it? Do you understand what I am asking? It is simple in other countries yes India has sent its troops to other countries but under the age of the government under the leadership of India here you cannot send your troops just because Afghanistan is asking but India has sent for some people they are not asking us a different story. And our IPK of experience because of disaster. Sorry sir. IPK. We are the peacekeeping force in Sri Lanka. So you can always quote sir that there is a kind of thing in Sri Lanka. So what is stubble burning? Stubble burning is an activity posed by our distinctcies. It is recently news for what? Sir it is argued that the stubble burning is one of the major cause for the BOA quality in Delhi. Can you be delicate? Stunned with which case and what was Supreme Court's state on it and what was Majap Barma's state on it? Supreme Court has ordered that stubble burning should be stopped but the difficulty in that is that the farmers they claim that that stubble burning is the easiest way out because there is little time between harvesting and the plantation of the next crop. Stubble burning is the only solution that they find. But as another solution that the government has proposed is use of happy seeders which could allow the plantation of the next crops even with the stubble in the field. That could be a solution to end stubble burning. You came from one of the prestigious institutions in the country. Why not in a single Indian university including your IITs the first 300 best universities of the world despite of spending crores and crores for your IITs why not a single IIT not able to get a place in first 300 universities of the world. So with respect to IITs there is a scope of improvement in terms of the IIT Holki that I could say is that there has been an issue of shortage of faculty along with that the issue of publications these are the major parameters in which the government spends lots of money and use exemptions like reservations are not you know that much Is it because of the problems which is affecting the higher education in India or it is something else? I think it is a combination of both the factors firstly there are issues in the higher education sector that there is public spending but I think more can be done on that front along with that there is also lack of multidisciplinary research in the prestigious institutions and with new technologies emerging I think that need for multidisciplinary research is even more prominent right now along with that another aspect is the way the rankings are done for example one important aspect is whether the universities are open to foreign students or foreign faculty there is a restriction on that along with that there is also an issue with foreign universities coming to India and promoting higher education sector there because there is a limitation on that as well So can you take it like this if the government takes a policy decision of allowing foreign faculties into higher education at least a couple of higher education will do it this is your position So with this being like like institute of eminence government is trying to nudge in that direction and they have provided certain provision of certain percentage of students being from foreign countries or faculties in higher from foreign institutes So we will have to see how that eventually reflects in the rankings in the universities What is this national court of office the concept of national court of office I will not tell you seem to be associated with most much have you heard of this united by emotions the recent times united by emotions united by emotions so it is this theme of olympics which is going to be held so what role do you think emotion has in sports we have the theme selected for this year's olympics is that united by emotion so what does that denote what is the role of emotion in sports by the theme united in emotions united by emotions but they are trying to highlight is that instead of creating the physical divisions that we have created or maybe other social divisions that are there in the world as of now that could be overcome if we use sports as a medium and by emotions it could be the emotion to the emotion attached to the sports would be the urge to win or the sportsman ships with it that is associated with with each sport or that each sports version sports version should have so I think that is the emotion what are the three qualities as a sportsman you would bring into administration I think firstly would be put in the effort put in regular continuous effort and along with a certain attachment from the result because there is even in sport in sports sometimes that you put in the effort but the result may not eventually come in your favor but that doesn't mean that you stop going to the field next day so I think that is one aspect that I would bring into it secondly I think a strategy would be an important part because for each sport we need to have a strategy and accordingly in administration also you need to have a strategy depending upon what the current situation is and what you imagine the situation should be what you want the situation to be like so you are preparing in Chennai Uttarkan how come you are in Chennai I am going to end my training with RDM you seem to be a very you seem to be educated in IIT, Root Keep, Tennis all these you seem to be more technocrat how would a technocrat be suited for a general administration what is the role of a technocrat in an administration talk for yourself my graduation at a civil engineering well engineering is in general about finding solutions to real life problems and I think the major role of administrator is also to find solutions to the problems find practical solutions to the real life problems I think that is one aspect secondly if I talk particularly about civil engineering administration has a role for civil engineering works that are perceived and I think myself I think I will also tell you upon the final dose my last question currently the Indian economy is facing a great slow down what do you think is the reasons for this slow down the current reason the current slow down is there a slow down or the economy is performing well there is a slow down so what is the reason the reason could be attributed to both cyclical as well as structural factors the structural aspect would be that for example the high logistics cost would be one of those factors where which hinders our export don't be very general, don't give me many chances I am asking you very particular reasons for the current economic slow down it has been a poor demand you have to be more specific talk about the reforms I mean the reform measures which were initiated by the government which led to the current economic slow down starting at least from demonization, GST the demand slow down job loss you have to talk about all that because all what you are talking is about the general factors which you can pick out from the books which has been installed in reforms which has led to the current economic slow down what is the specific significance of the growth in the infrastructure the growth in the city as such it culminates with the construction of Apagunga canal and there is a solonium aqueduct that is an important 7 inch train future how did growth come into power important infrastructure so the transition was why was growth reformed in the particular aspects was it wrong or was it because of politicians so we call it significance for two reasons one is the engineering institute and second is Bengal miners and saffers they had their establishment there but saffers what was the reason what was the reason Bengal miners and saffers were there and then currently they have Bengal engineers who has had their establishment so you've been to Germany so what makes Germany more special if German engineering is particularly in the automobile sector it is considered to be as a pioneer in that sector and the reason I think is probably because of their educational setup so I think one although I'm not sure of it but one aspect could be that probably they have the option of specialization at an early stage very good that could be helpful in specialization and make a person more inclined to work in such a way probably in the industry probably they have they have their own that's something which is very encouraged by pilot industry you are seeing very good to do your task very good to do which you are also doing Technical University in Munich in Munich you know about the movement because of Munich conference but I'm not sure about the details I have collected some funds for your cultural that is one session how do you actually frustrate some other industry how do you frustrate them what do they have to gain what do they have to consider for your programs so the way we try to persuade them dependent upon what field they were from or what sector that particular company was from for example if we are trying to pursue someone from a coaching industry so our approach would be targeted towards the number of students who are coming they could be if we are trying to seek sponsorship from some coaching industry in that case we would which that we have will come from different teams from different colleges so that could provide them exposure or advertisement in that regard secondly if another way that we used to do it was for alumni network that was another aspect and thirdly catered to the particular event for example if there is something that is related to adventure then what is that what is that what should be even for coaching centers even after college there are different examinations but in general for the sponsors I think one thing that they would gain was I mean access to the students the football that we see for significance so I think they could see that to be as suitable so what is the freedom in which to engage so what is the difference between needle compacting and blade compacting so with needle compacting we have we have an instrument in the shape of a needle what is the difference the needle compacting could be used in areas where we have a network of reinforcement so that the stability of the compaction could be with a needle compacting and more of the blade compacting could be used where the surfaces more uniform and more widespread so it would provide more efficiency in that area what is the what is the what is the what is the what is the what is the difference to measure the to measure angles vertical angles as well as horizontal angles how would you like to compare different from a six inch how would you compare and what would you prefer what do you watch tennis and the I have heard of it I have seen it why you have told me it is so good a football to have it as a normal player yes Alexander is very okay, compared to us for a matter of mostly German so I think one thing would be about the popularity of the sport influences the population influences the people to pursue a particular sport and secondly I am not sure about the infrastructure that Germany has in respect to both the sports but because Germany has a way to put quality I think the infrastructure for that particular sport would be better developed and it might not have that very good quality but I am not sure about it tell me how do we how do we make it a whole how do we make it a whole how do we make solutions how do we make it a whole how do we make it a whole horrifying first you could think developer infrastructure that could require a coaching centre, tennis schools to be accesible and to increase the number that is lacking that is why country has to be a very insignificant I would like to ask with a real suggestion So, if I have no points in the ICS, is it possible to do it? Sir, I know through examination, we have to be given a pass. Sir, there is provision of open code, but I am not sure if the ICS is allowed to do it. So, not allowed in ICS? You have to join an institution. Only in matriculation and all, they allow. If you have attained age, particular age, then you can appear directly as a private candidate. In matriculation and all the relations, same code, CVS seems allowed, but ICS seems not allowed. Okay, still since we are running short of time, I have got one observation. It seems you are not very happy about the interview. I know it. You are not interested in the interview. It should be more lively. Okay, but it doesn't look lively at all. Now only you are smiling, the whole interview, you are very stern. Okay, and sir, you are the main discussion maker. It's a group discussion. Somebody is asking questions, you should lead the whole team. So please, practice it now for your interview. Sir, 23rd March. Still one month is there. Practice it, make your voice more assertive. I should smile more in the interview. I should smile more. Smile sometimes? See, first of all, your voice, your tone slightly, you have to increase the volume. It's very low. But the extent sometimes it is inaudible. So close and I feel it hard to present it. Mistaking it for humility or something like that, your voice? Ma, I usually speak like this, maybe I will work on it. You just practice. See, you just practice slightly loud and slightly louder because voice is very low being, see, whatever you answer, it should be audible from all the places. Yes sir. And also try looking at all the people who were answering. He was just looking at the person who suited that question only. So other members get bored and they start doing their own... Okay. And it appears that you are a little tense, so be relaxed. You are already in a good job. You are not seem to lose. Very good job. Here also, even in the board, we will be only trying to help you rather than harass you. We are not here to harass you. So don't feel the risk. So always give one of the smiley, whatever the risk. Then see the people around, what is the reaction and all you will see. And answer the question very briefly. Don't beat around the bush. Okay sir. You don't know answer, you just say I don't know. Many times, either your voice is low or you are beating around the bush. He is asking one question and he is answering something else. See ICSC, you can say I don't know. You seem to be very reluctant to say I don't know. Because only one person don't know that. See, because I also didn't know that the provision... Not everybody need know actually that. Please, whether you are as a private candidate whether you can apply or not. You have studied ICSC. Okay sir. So if you have that knowledge, otherwise you have studied in the regular stream. So you may not be knowing that whether you are entitled or not. So when such questions come, don't try to guess something and beat around the bush. So that is not a... Yes, I don't know. I don't know sir. So very politely you can say I don't know sir. So we make it very brief. And whatever you have written as I already pointed out. This is dad. Then about your Haridwar who was very... Whatever you have mentioned, wantonness. Then you are sending group to office. And he has very bad question. You are again beating around the bush. See, whether he is asking whether you are for it or against it. If you are for it, you must say one, two, three. These are the three points which way I want to eliminate groups to go. No mix. Yes. In this case, the country is asking me. See when UN is keeping force as a part of that, India has gone to many places. Africa in many places it has gone. But that is as a part of our commitment to UN. He send our groups. When there are two countries, between two countries or even if it is US mediated. You have to think twice before sending our groups. Because we are putting our groups at risk, isn't it? So based on our experience in IPKF in Sri Lanka. It was not really wise decision to send IPKF. So we are not able to solve the problem because it is an internal problem. And we lost our precious life of our soldiers. So like this, one, two, three. Three points for or against. You must say that. When you said you were just going around and around and around. He was trying to extract your answer from you but still you are not giving answer. In that case, I wanted to ask if I would have said no and then given that answer of developmental rule. Would that have been good or should I have skipped the developmental rule altogether? What the role of India has been so far? So you need not go into history background and all. When the question is asked, give a straight answer. What is expected is yes or no he is asking. If it is yes, why? One, two, three. No, why? So like that it should be. See, try to be very brief. When you beat around the bush, you will get caught. Because you will say something and another question will be asked on that. Then the question he asked why Indian universities are not able to measure up to the level of international universities. Again, far and again you can have views why it is not. What are the constraints in our Indian system? Whether our higher institutions have got full autonomy. These autonomous institutions like IITs are able to do excel. Whereas many other universities, they don't have autonomy. And the quality of teachers is also there is no rigorous exercise to upgrade their knowledge. So these two could be, from my point of view, these two could be the reason. But we ought to also look into the aspect of how actually they grade these universities. What are the criteria for grading these universities? See sometimes those grades may be relevant to us or may not be relevant to us. See, our IITs may be much better than Harvard. But how it is measured? And third point is in many US universities, it is based on individual professor and scientist. See, if this scientist migrates to another university, then standard of that university goes up. So it is based on individual professors and scientists. So that kind of system is there. So in our case, we have, there is a lot of scope for improvement. But we have to also see on what basis these are all graded internationally. For instance, Oscar award is not going to Indian movies. But what kind of standard they keep for Oscar? So just because we have not got Oscar, we cannot say that Indian movies are bad. They are not up to that standard. They may be better off than some of the Oscar movies also. But maybe technical quality, those things they excel and they get. So in whenever internationally it comes, what kind of standards are used for measuring competence also we have to look into. So you can always give your answer justifying these are the factors. So if it is more anonymous, maybe our quality of our university will go up. If you have a better quality of teachers, more rigorous rules of selection, then they will be better off. And more exchange with the international universities, then they will be better off. Some of them are important, some ideas. See why our people are not getting Nobel Prize? That could be another question like this. See not only quality of the, be very specific in your answer. So you must smile, you must also increase your voice. And third, you must be very specific to the answer in such a way that it impresses. And wherever you are strong, at that point, you can put a leading answer so that next question will come on that. So that kind of taking, that's what I said you are bad scholarship and all this. So these are the things which I think you have to improve. When is the interview? 23rd March. 23rd March. Next 3rd March. 23rd March. 23rd March, because another boy said 3rd March. So it is the... One month is there, you can practice these things. See you have got a very good knowledge base and you have got good qualities and impressive personality, everything is there. The only thing is these changes you will have to do in the next couple of weeks to try to improve. Try down. For all that answer, you write down and it will not work. So that you don't beat around the bush. Okay, okay. Sir, one thing I wanted to ask you about is how do innovative steps you put in this? No, no, no. I was just asking you, point to you. I have to read a little bit about Root Key and Bayramu also. Okay, thank you.
