President’s Welcome Message

Greetings to all of you! Blessed with a vision and an untrammeled thirst to nurture the society, the great philanthropists of Shri Vile Parle Kelvani Mandal founded Narsee Monjee College of Commerce & Economics in 1964. One of the premier and oldest colleges in the region, the institution has catalyzed the scenario of education since then by imparting quality education. Apart from the staple and mainstream courses in Commerce, the institution offers various job oriented courses like B. Sc. (IT) to give learners an edge over others in the job market by chiseling their communication, computer and other soft skills. Narsee Monjee College has always had a reputation of being the most sought after college globally. My staunch faith and conviction is that our students would carve a niche in their career and life by going in lineage and heritage through this temple of learning. I am glad that all of you undertake various co-curricular activities which sharpen your personality, managerial and inter-personal skills. I am also particularly glad that you students are also encouraged to engage in social out- reach activities especially like NSS Camp in rural areas which sensitize you to realities of lives of different sections of the society in our country. All this has been possible only due to the dedication and commitment of the Teaching Faculty guided at every level by an enthusiastic Principal and all the support staff of the college. I wish you all the best for achieving greater success and scaling newer heights in your education and career ahead. With its newly adorned crown of Autonomous status, I am sure that NM College will leave no stone unturned to build a vibrant and inclusive learning community in a culture of excellence sustained by a sound value system that promotes responsible citizenship and effects social change. My good and warm wishes to all the new entrants to our NMPARIVAR.

English Section With Courage We Shall Triumph.

The academic year was off to a zealous start with academic rigour and there were great expectations about global events too. As the year passed, a lot has happened that forces us to rethink about the path we have chosen... Amazon rainforests wildfire, Australian bushfires signified that we can face dire consequences if we devastate environment in our effort to maintain a high growth trajectory. Trouble started looming around the end of 2019 and this academic year now comes to a sombre end with humanity reeling under its worst crisis-the covid-19 outbreak .It has sent almost the entire world on a lockdown. We as a nation are also grappling to contain its spread. The only way out we know as of now is social distancing and isolation as far as possible.

Amidst the smoke is a fire ... to light the situation dark and dire

The scarlet drops in the sand… Wake up; your future is in your hand

I remember these lines as I pen down my thoughts while staying in a surrounding put on a lockdown. The situation is grim but we shall overcome. We hope, and hope is the passion for the possible, hope is the last thing that’s ever lost. Indian scientists are contributing substantially towards finding a solution to control the outbreak and our frontline fighters are braving all odds to keep us safe. While we see worrying statistics about infections and deaths, the outbreak has actually done well for the planet .Pollution levels have drastically dropped; calm has befallen silencing the seismic noise. We have purer air and clearer water. This has brought up the best of people in the worst of times. This crisis has also awakened a Good Samaritan amongst us. The flame of gratitude towards our frontline warriors has enkindled and helping hands are trying to ease the pain of our fellow destitute citizens .Good work is transcending all barriers. Small acts of kindness also make the society cohesive. Vying nations are collaborating too. These are very positive changes. Courage, Kindness, Creativity, and Innovation. These values have seen us through good times and bad — times of triumph and times of fear and uncertainty. And these values will help us overcome together the challenges we face today in the COVID-19 pandemic. A lot has been spoken about service towards nation. Today let’s do our bit, diligently follow the orders to keep ourselves and our nation safe.

Together we shall weather the storm and with courage we shall triumph.

It is the right time for all of us humans to learn a lesson and to continue what we are doing now. Indubitably, we can progress only through sustainable development. Great goals can be achieved through global co-operation, co-ordination and peaceful co-existence rather than vengeance and violence ; the interest of community must be put before individual interest. Let thankfulness, empathy towards the less fortunate and striving for a better environment become a part of our lives. If we do this, we will find ourselves in a beautiful world after this crisis ends.

Essay topic: The change I wish to see in my nation Pioneering change: a shift in approach

India, a land of diversity, of rich culture and heritage, varied geography and vivid history … is my country.But even after so many years of independence my beloved country is still in a developing state. Common people have to face predicaments, there are social tensions; education and health facilities are restricted to the mega cities and the nation is not gauged by essential infrastructure. I do not wish to play the blame game; though it’s natural for all to hold the government and the system culpable.

I have a different opinion. I feel this nation is ours and we all Indians forming a composite whole should be doing something for our nation .After a lot of contemplation about the problems fellow citizens face in their lives .. I found that the problem lies within us. Do we have enough civic sense? If we don’t fulfil our work with complete dedication and responsibility ,how can we expect the same from others? And how can then we expect the system to be flawless by and large? I have an understanding that a nation reaches the peak of its glory only when citizens strive for all round progress, although the government also plays a remarkable role in it. This led me to a conclusion: the predicament lies in the thought process...and this is the one thing I would like to change in my nation. Because fruits of accomplishment are borne when civic life is driven by some force, a determination.

Considering a problem: of skill development and rising quality and industrious man power, a national asset. But barring a few cities the villages and small towns are still not able to craft fine and skilled individuals because of poor education quality. To what extent can government officials keep a check on the standards of schools? Same is the case in other fields. To implement this, I deem that education is the most powerful tool...as Nelson Mandela had quoted, “education is the most powerful weapon that you can use to change the world.” As mind is a fire to be kindled. It is education that enables a phenomenal transition from I we, from my progress to collective benefit .Hence education system should be restructured. Schools should of course be required to teach at high standards giving a practical exposure and a holistic approach. Along with academics, students should also be taught to be better individuals, better citizens, and that to realise the dream of emancipation of their nation in all fields: their individual obligation. Intuitively this is possible – if imperialised Japan could revolutionise itself drastically by Meiji revolution; Indians can also pioneer change. If Japan, devastated by atom bomb can rise as a great power in technology and develop itself, due to its tenacious citizens, India too can progress.

To conclude, I wish India should be persevering with motivation because of a paradigm shift, to make India progressive. Henceforth, a developed India would contribute to a still larger cause of humanity. As the great poet ,Rabindranath Tagore quoted in his poem,

Where the mind is led forward by thee into ever widening thought and action,

Into that heaven of freedom my father let my country awake.

My Account As A War Journalist

Scurrying in a police van through the unpaved dusty roadside the city torn apart by prejudice and religious intolerance, dilapidated, broken structures, jagged and pointed pillars and monstrous debris strewn along both sides of the street narrated the tale of human hostility and animosity that had not only obliterated the civilisation but also left a stigma, a blot on mankind that will be indelible. The omnipresent silence spoke about the atrocities and the inhuman treatment that must have been meted out to the credulous people who had become the victims of a group of mindless, insane fanatics who were obsessed with a religious philosophy that spelt doom for the human civilisation.

The religious fundamentals in the most blasphemous way had ripped the civilisation of people of their right to life; the officious leaders declared a death penalty for all those who refused to accept and embrace the hollow and sinister tenets of the religion they propounded. Considering themselves above the creator they were the self proclaimed moral police who denied the civilians of this land, freedom and liberty. Misery, despair and a sense of hopelessness hung low in the air. They were our only allies in this vast rugged terrain that had witnessed the worst sanguinary outcome of human hostility.

All around were vast stretches of fallow land, occasionally one would come across a rickety vehicle with uniformed men armed with heavy ammunition patrolling and trying to salvage whatever little was left off in this cursed land. Life for the people in this land was a struggle, a ferocious struggle for survival. The political cauldron and chaos had enveloped this part of the world with a shroud of pessimism. It was heart wrenching to see the life of austerity that the common people were subjected to in the land that is considered to be the birth place of Taliban; the worst religious philosophy that the human race has ever witnessed since its inception.

However against all the adversities, the local people had not lost faith, faith that some benevolent and Samaritan group of people and nations would come forward and salvage them from the clutches of the tyrannical rule that had subjugated the children of a ‘lesser God’ to inexplicable and unspoken bloodbath and mayhem. This rapacity for unrestrained power and authority is obfuscating and has been a subject of obloquy.

A world free of unwilling division A world where not society ,but people take their own Maturity strikes so hard decisions . Words make us cry Imagine a world with no aggression. Cartoons fail to make us laugh... No pointless deaths , no need of protection As soon as our phones fall down we panic A world where soldiers are also humans not And if a friend falls down we laugh, Just defense without emotions Who cares about their hidden energies A world where their lives matter and so do their Only the phone battery should be charged... relations Imagine a world with love Rapists, murderers, traitors, thieves A world where everyone is equal ,none below , none All are replaced by our own relatives... above A world where everything is a symbol of peace and Such a strange world it has become not just doves .

Music: Sheer Poetry PATIENCE In this world full of tension, I speak the tongues of the Goddesses People want to get their things done, And of the angels with harps, They don’t have time to pay attention Music is my name, And don’t think before they speak and learn. And you will find me in mellifluous laughs, I flow fluently through the chests of the famous, People want to complete their work quickly, Through the throats of the little children, For it , they do whatever they can, Your poetry has my initials, They don’t care about what people feel, Beautiful instruments dance along my chords, They just want success instantly. And together we make heavenly melodies, We bring down heavens and send earthly beings In the past, patience was the king right up, It created one of the best bonding Treble and bass clefs bring our spines up and about, No one was exploited , no one was cheated, Minims and crochets dance their way out, Everyone was loving and caring. We roll through melodies and songs, Children with their angelic voices sing along, Now patience has become history, Guitarists and pianists join in humble harmony, Finding patient people is a mystery, Old men and women shout in glee, People who were carefree in the past, We sound like sweet roses and drops of honey, Have become obsessed about doing their work fast. Our hymns sometimes praise and sometimes bring people down to their knees, Impatience has increased level of frustration, Love songs bury old memories, It has put many people into depression, Country lifts your soul, They don’t know how to delay their gratification, Pop music brings out your energy, And in the process have broken many relations . Classical tunes make your ears roll, You find me in chants, Patience is our treasure. In wishful grants, It is a value indicator. In Pandora’s box, It is the only way to be away from pressure. In the arms of the lotus, It is the best preventive measure. In the jewels of the sea, In the voice of the seal, -Deep Gada I am omnipresent, SYJC A I am Music.
