hello friends
now , I am writing some important facts about Indian Railways , because I always remained in
touch with it form 5 years old onwards . I have many relatives working at many impotant posts
in Indian railways.
Indian Railways, a historical legacy, are a vital force in our economy. The first railway on Indian sub-continent ran from Bombay to Thane on 16th April 1853. Fourteen railway carriages carried about 400 guests from Bombay to Thane covering a distance of 21 miles. Since then there has been no looking back. It is interesting to note that though the railways were introduced to facilitate the commercial interest of the British it played an important role in unifying the country.
Railways are ideally suited for long distance travel and movement of bulk commodities. Regarded better than road transport in terms of energy efficiency, land use, environment impact and safety it is always in forefront during national emergency.
Indian railways, the largest rail network in Asia and the world's second largest under one management are also credited with having a multi gauge and multi traction system.
The track kilometers in broad gauge (1676 mm) are 86, 526 kms, meter gauge (1000 mm) are 18, 529 kms and narrow gauge (762/610 mm) are 3,651 kms. Of the total route of 63,028 kms, 16,001 kms are electrified.
The railways have 7566 locomotives, 37, 840 coaching vehicles, 222, 147 freight wagons, 6853 stations, 300 yards, 2300 goodsheds, 700 repair shops, and 1.54 million work force. Indian Railways runs around 11,000 trains everyday, of which 7,000 are passenger trains.
now about its objectives in year 2008........................................................................
Indian Railways created a history by generating a cash surplus before dividend of Rs 20,000 cr as against Rs 14,700 cr in the previous year. The Passenger earnings have increased by 14 percent while coach earnings have shown a rise of 48 percent. A quantum jump in freight business is another highlight of the year. For the year 2007-2008 Construction of High Speed Passenger Corridors have been proposed. The corridors would have state of the art signaling and train control systems, for running high speed trains at speeds of 300 to 350 kms per hour; one each in the Northern, Western, Southern and Eastern regions of the country. The trains will cover distance distances of up to 600 kms in two to three hours. Private Public Partnership would be considered for High-speed corridors. Suggestions have been made to introduce air-conditioned class services in suburban trains in Mumbai, Chennai and Kolkata and escalators at major stations. The railway minister has proposed to use more IT services in the railways which would help in increasing passenger and freight earnings, reduce operating costs, ensure effective utilization of human and physical resources . Gauge Conversion, Rolling Stock Modernization and Capacity Augmentation are the other aspects in the to do list of the Indian Railways. The year 2007 will be celebrated as cleanliness year where efforts would be ensured to maintain cleanliness and hygiene at station premises in passenger trains, railway lines, waiting rooms etc.

About My HomeTown
hello friends..
now I want to tell you something about my hometown. I belong to Kushinagar , which is situated in the eastern region of Uttar Pradesh state.
Initially Kushinagar was not an district , but it was the part of district Deoria. When
Mayawati government came into power it gave popularity Kushinagar as district . After that
Kushinagar is known as an important district of eastern u.p.
Kushinagar is near about 80 km away from Gorakhpur which is the head office of north eastern jone of Indian Railways.Thats why luckily I have no problem regarding railways
means trains are available from here to anywhere in India.
My district is full of green trees covering nearly 40% area of land.So the I can say that
it is polution free.The polution free environment is sustained there because there also no rapid
industrialization exist.Means you can breath in a healthy environment without any apprehension.
Now something about agriculture . Kushinagar is famous for the forming of sugarcane.
It produces near about 20 - 25% of total sugar that is consumpted in u.p.That's why every government take necessary steps for the welfare of formers, but still it does not reach to the people that actually need it.So it is need of hour that reforms should be taken at wide level and
with proper planning so that it might reach to everyone.
There are ample of opportunities in educational field . There are many institutes and
colleges which provide high level of eductional programmes.There are many persons which after
being qualified from here have spread glory in all world.
But what I am leaving here without describing the important fact is it's impotant historical significance.As nearly everybody know that it is the holy place because here Mahatama Budhha left his body for heaven.That's why it has important significance not
only for Indians but also at international level.
Lot's of financial supports are available for the development of Kushinagar. It is provided not only by India but also by other countries where there are lot of supporters of
Gautam Budhha. Now Indian government is taking every necessary steps in establishing it
as a tourist place at world level.
The people of kushinagar are very good natured. The respectfull nature for everyone
of these people is really appreciable. I am sure taht at next time when you will visit to Kushinagar,the people of Kushinagar will really win your heart.And you will be forced to say that
what a good place it is.

My Experience At CDAC
Hello Friends
I am Nirankar Singh and i am trying to pen down my experience with CDAC.
Although i have passed just one and half week in CDAC, yet i am in condition to write something about CDAC.
Fristly I want to thank IT department of Indian government to establish CDAC at such a nice place means Bangalore.Here, there exits good climatic situations which give me as well as North Indian students from scorching heat that has spread its roots there.But here climatic conditions are different, here environment is same as it exits in the month of spring
these conditions make everyone enthusiastic and energetic,thats why many IT industries
prefer here to establish it's branch.
Now I want to tell you something about my educational background I have completed
my B.Tech. programme form the institute C.A.E.T.,Etawah which is situated 140 km. form the
industrial city, Kanpur. I have completed my B.Tech. with 75.50% in Computer Science & Engg.
Although I belong to technical background but i have seen many differences between CDAC and my institute . In my institute i have the limited time to access the computers in college lab but
here no such type of restrictions exist , means you can access the computers anytime either it is
day or night,either it is 12.00 of noon or it is 12.00 of night.
I am not trying to specify differences between CDAC and my institute but I want to share my feelings about my previous institute and CDAC.Their if I have completed my coding of any programme , I have to wait a night to run it on the system and check the accuracy of my programme but here there is no limit.Actually this type of environment help anyone to improve
his/her technical skill.
Here a competative environment exist means if you are not aware what is happening aorund you can not compete this competative environment.for this purpose you have to aware
every time.
Many of us have a good theoretical knowledge of his subject, but they lags behind in the
field of practical knowledge.And one is incomplete if he/she does not have good command over
theroretical as well as practical knowledge.Environment of CDAC fulfills the patches that students have in their practical knowledge.
Here the faculty members have good practical knowledge. They also have a very cooperating nature.their teaching style is impacceble.They teach in such a way that it does
not matter that whether you have a computing background or not,means the students that
have non computing background feel no problems in starting their programming.
Now I am putting my some points in favour of what i have written above. The study
material that they provide covers whole syllabus of subject and if you have the ability and the capability to read it then through it you will face no problem in solving problems.One thing that
I am not describing will incomplete the whole matter is the assignment that it provides. The
assigments are extremelly good they are highly logical means you can develop your logic by solving those assignments.
Initially when I was solving those assignments then I was feeling very nervous during
programming but thinking again and again now I am able to solve those problems more effectively.
At CADC I moved to introduce with my batchmates . After introduction I found that most of my batchmates were North Indian but my batch contains students from all over India.It was a good experience to meet meet people from all parts of the country.It was an good opportunity for me to share ideas ,views and culture with them. I found that the students were from different educational backgrounds some of them were completed their graduation from Art side , some from science, some from commerce and some from engineering background. Even some of students have work experience and in this environment it was a good opportunity to learn a lot.
CDAC has also improved one of my skill called "PATIENCE" ,which is very necessary
to make a successful carrier in software field.Intially I lost my courage and confidence when
output does not appear correctly.But now I do not lose my patience.
Here it is challenge infront of me to clear my MGPA'S and MGPT'S and it happens regularly so everyone has to be preapare himself/herself for it.So it gives a responsibility
to students.
It has a universal rule that no one is completely perfect. It also appears true here .
There are no any big patches here but there exist someone in fact which are small patches
I find that at sometimes nearly 8 -10 pm that the ratio of student and computer is does not appear good some students have to wait for systems.And onething also, that mouse of
systems create trouble while performing any operation which should be replaced by optical
mouse , if possible.
In spite of these small patches I like my CDAC because it gives me an opportunity to
learn a lot.

My First Day At Cdac Bangalore
Hello Friends,
My first half day at CDAC Banagalore was really not very good, because I was late for more than three hours . It was very painful to me because i could attend inaguration ceremoney and important introduction about CDAC which was very necrssary for me, but only i was not responsible for it although I took my reservation ticket from Gorakhpur which is my home town on 4th august , it's sheduled arrival in bangalore was on 5.00 am. But it took 4 to 5 hours more to reach Bangalore . It was very misfortunate for me I was in depression beacause engine of train stopped working due to this it stood in stagnated condition for more than 2 hours,when new engine came then the train moved forward to my destination.
Anyway my train reached to bangalore at 10.00 am.My one relative recieved me from the station . I faced to much problem in traffic . It was huge rush on the road . Ultimately I reached to CDAC . I faced many problems to reach CDAC . I hired an auto for my purpose to reach my destination, I said him to drop me at CDAC but he dropped me at CDOT . He was totally confused between CDAC and CDOT.Anyway i reached to CDAC.When I reached to CDAC then I knew that why autowala was confused because it was clearly mention on the wall and at the gate "NCST " and CDAC was nowhere mentioned .
I was thinking Perhaps i am the latest comer at CDAC.When I reached CDAC then all
the programmes were ended.When I reached then from the reception counter I recieved a message that wait for sometime. I waited for nearly 1 hour because it was lunch time.when lunch time completed one admin employee came and gave me kit and identity card.After taking my identity card i registered myself for hostel accomodation.Actually i am North Indian. During hostel accomodation i was thinking about my room partner and was praying to God that he must be North Indian and almighty God listened me and i got my room partner which belong to Allahabad.
After putting my bags and baggage in my alloted room F10 I again went to institute
where i got lunch coupon and i took my lunch.In fact the first day was very busy because we have to attend our first class "introduction to unix".My all efforts went into vein because i could not attened my first class , it was happening for first time with me when i could not attend my first class.
After class I went to my room with my room partner.We saw a neat and clean room well occupied with two almiras , two chairs and two stable tables.We arranged our room properly and put all the things in proper position.Then we went to market to purchase some necessary things.After purchasing things we returned to our hostel.
Although I was not alone in CDAC ,one of my batchmate was also selected for FPGDST course but my room partner was alone in the sense that none of his batchmate came here for the course.
At 7.30 pm I took my dinner . In the starting I faced problem with the south Indian food but slowly and slowly I adjusted myself with this food.Mes workers are higly disciplined and very strict to time means even if you are five to ten minutes late form the specified time you will lose your meal.
Although the dinner time dinner time was to early for me because I ussually take my dinner at 9 - 10 pm , but by and by my biological clock adjusted it same as in the case of food.
After taking my food I went to outside to look electronic city more closely . I wandered here and there without any purpose for more than 1 hour . I saw a number of IT companies situated side by side where thousands of employees work day and night .
After visiting electronic city I returned to my hostel (Training Block). I have a habit of watching movies in the night . Initially I was thinking that whether there will be any entertainment media present or not. I was very pleased when I find a common room equipped with with a colour television.
I sat on a chair in common room and watched some movies and tv serials. I watched it for nearly one hour.After watching I moved to introduce with my batchmates . After introduction I found that most of my batchmates were North Indian but my batch contains students from all over India.It was a good experience to meet meet people from all parts of the country.It was an good opportunity for me to share ideas ,views and culture with them.
I found that the students were from different educational backgrounds some of them were completed their graduation from Art side , some from science, some from commerce and some from engineering background. Even some of students have work experience and in this environment it was a good opportunity to learn a lot.
When I looked at the watch it was nearly 12.00 pm of night . As I was tired to much on that because of my long journey near about 2600 km and travelling more than two nights and two days.
I went to my room and look for tomorrow's shedule . I saw that the first class was at 10.00pm.So I decided to go for bed.Actually I have a bad habit that I can not get up early in the
morning without the help of alarm.So I set an alarm of 6.00 am early in morning so that I might be ready in advance.
After that I gave sometime to remember God and thank him for his deeds then I moved in a deep sleep.
