The story of journey and not the destination

The UPSC results are out. So many success stories are coming out from this event and every story is unique and inspiring. But out of all these, one story that grabbed my attention is a story of the person who is not an IAS yet but has secured 667 rank and is still preparing for the UPSC exam for a better rank and this years attempt will be his last attempt the 9th attempt.

The story of RAM BHAJAN KUMAR, 34 years old, head constable in Delhi Police. He is a married guy and father of two daughters. While reading the story of this I was so touched and inspired that I felt like sharing it.

He has seen many economical hardships and despite of everything he wants to motivate and help people and according to him UPSC gives that platform to motivate and help people. When he got married his wife was a fifth pass, Time has passed and the best thing is she began the journey of becoming a post graduate. The kind of support and devotion this person showed towards his wife and how they both grew together is such a real motivation. During this journey of his wife he had to convince local people that it is okay to wear school uniform and step out of the house. This power to change the stereotype and breaking the pattern to bring positive change in the society is what we need in todays time.

The takeaway from this story for me is that during the journey of getting what we need we can make real impact by just believing in ourselves. This person has not yet reached his goal, but how during this journey of reaching his goal he has created the example for others to get motivated shows whatever the result may be we can always grow.

Recombinant DNA technology

Recombinant DNA Technology The term recombinant DNA means the joining or recombining of two pieces of DNA from two different sources. Genetic modification using recombinant DNA allows us to move genes whose function are known. By making manipulations more precise and outcomes more certain, the risk of producing organisms with unexpected traits are decreased. · Steps involved in recombinant DNA technique (or gene cloning): - · The basic 7 steps involved in gene cloning are: Isolation of DNA [gene of interest] fragments to be cloned. Insertion of isolated DNA into a suitable vector to form recombinant DNA . Introduction of recombinant DNA into a suitable organism known as host. Selection of transformed host cells and identification of the clone containing the gene of interest. Multiplication/Expression of t...

KADAMBANI GANGULY

THE FIRST FEMALE DOCTOR OF INDIA Our human society has a norm of following set patterns. We follow pattern in all of our work in all of our habits, in all of our social interactions. And one of the examples that adds to this pattern is to consider women as a weak gender. It’s not a sudden thing that has emerged today but it’s has been there since the beginning of the human society. The basic rules of the society that we follow today has emerged from a patriarchal thinking so naturally women had always been kept at a disadvantage in terms of power, in terms of empowerment. Many women in our history have tried to break this pattern by doing extreme hard work, by facing hard resistance, by overcoming the social stigma of the society and tried to make gender equality a part of this civilization. One such lady was Kadambini Ganguly, the first Women Physician of India at a time when the Indian society used to think women education as an offence. Kadambini Ganguly was born on 18 ...

Plastic Pollution: Understanding the Threat of Microplastics

Microplastics- These are the pieces of plastics that are less than 5mm in size and are present in the environment from various sources of plastics. Humans couldn’t have possibly imagined that a simple invention back in 1909, by “Leo Hendrik Baekeland” called the Bakelite (the first synthetic plastic – “phenol formaldehyde resin”), could become a threat to the environment. The commercial success of this product lead to inventions of many more plastics like LDPE, HDPE, PVC, Polystyrene etc. After this human have accepted plastics so fast that we can easily see how dependent we have become on the plastic. The global plastic industry in 2020 was valued at 580-billion-dollar industry. Plastics are now everywhere and in every industry. Why is plastic becoming a problem to us? There are many perspectives to this, but I will discuss 3 of them. The non-biodegradable nature of the plastic. Accumulation of microplastics in foo...
