In this age of globalization and competitive environment Educational institutions all around the world along with the aspirations of students and parents have undergone critical transformations with time. Having successfully completed 20 years of imparting quality education for all, GCET has been making meaningful educational transformations and accomplishing world-class standards of academic excellence. Charutar Vidya Mandal has always supported to the all round development of any institution of higher learning. I am happy to observe that GCET has been well recognized in the map of technical education in Gujarat and even beyond for its excellence in education and performance. This is a testimony to the success stories that the faculty and the management have worked over the years for excellence. As GCET continues to grow under the Charutar Vidya Mandal there is also a need for value-based, holistic education which can not only ensure standardized teaching methodologies but also engages students in a way that enhances their 'Global Learning'. All the faculty members must be committed to provide top quality education to each and every student of the campus. Let all of us strive together to improve our standard towards continuous excellence. On this occasion I also congratulate the editorial team of GCET VOICE for bringing out the 14th issue of the magazine. My blessings and best wishes to all the members of the GCET family. Dr. C L Patel 5 From the desk of Principal Dr. Himanshu B Soni Principal, GCET A journey of 20 years and beyond…. This year we are going to celebrate 20th Annual day of our institute- Celebration of 20 Glorious years! Our institute was started as one of the first self-financed institutes of the state in year 1996 and currently GCET is one of the most preferred destination for the higher education in Gujarat. Even the flavor of our institute has spread over the boundaries of the state. Currently as per DATA QUEST survey, our institute is ranked 42nd in first hundred technical institutes of the country. We have travelled only a very short span of twenty years, which just gives teenager institute status to GCET but in this short span due to the efforts put up by all stake holders - the students, the faculty and the alumni, and with constant support from our management we have achieved many milestones. I have been a witness to the progress of the institute since 1998 – the year in which I took up my first teaching assignment here in GCET. I fondly recall my early days- when there was only half portion (EC, EE, IT wing) of the building ready and we shifted from BVM to the new building of GCET, where it is housed today. So many problems were faced during those days as far as facilities were concerned. During early days there was no separate work distribution, even teaching staff members were joining hand to count benches and books as and when it arrived. So many memories flash in mind. Everyone decided to make a strong foundation of GCET. Though college building was coming up but all labs were equipped with state of art facilities. So many constraints in the form of progressive construction, many board with: NO ENTRY BEYOND THIS AREA, but never got any complaints about the infrastructure facilities. GCET faculty and students were more focused in teaching learning component to make our graduates a true engineer. GCET is fortunate enough that here we got some of the best experienced teachers ( Prof. N D Jotwani, Prof. J C Panchal, Prof. R. P Arora, Prof. L F Rabari and Prof. A.M Antani) they established all processes in line, which were very essential for new institute at its earlier days. Hardly we had 30 + faculty members in campus till year 1999. Mostly, all faculty members joined GCET with their bachelor degree. Slowly 6 building was getting ready and became fully available for use by the end of year 1999. The management of our institute and in particular Dr C L Patel (chairman CVM) has a vision to have learned pull of faculty members on the campus. Looking to this vision of our chairman, the management sponsored many faculty members to pursue Master's and doctoral degree from various IITs and NITs. Besides a few, almost all faculty members who were sponsored are available today on campus with committed goal of serving society for its better future. Currently we have 30 faculty members with Ph. D degree on our campus and this shows the research potential of our team. In the year 2007 we started the first PG program and currently we are running seven PG courses. For last many year the placement and admission of the institute have achieved new higher dimensions. From eligible strength of students almost more than 85% are placed through campus recruitment. We have very well defined teaching learning and counseling process on the campus which give benefits to our student for becoming true engineer. As a research outcome GCET has done few R&D projects and some are ongoing and faculty members are trying to get more projects in near future. During the span of 20 years (1996-2016) GCET always has been at the forefront in pioneering new edge practices, whether be it implemented academically or practically. We have decided not to seat with past laurels and achievements but, we must strive to become one of the best institutes of the country in all dimensions of education. College magazine provides the platform to the students and faculty members to express their own feelings and views. It is the reason why our college magazine in named GCET Voice. GCET voice has remained as a canvas to portray different shades of creativity of our young learners and faculty members. I am very sure that this year again GCET voice would prove to be the real voice of GCET. I heartily congratulate the entire editorial team. Many congratulations to all. Dr. Himanshu B Soni 7 Editorial Jottings Gone are those days – the lovely smell of books, the enjoyment while opening it for the first time, the feel of touching the hard cover, thrill and suspense created as the crisp pages are turned on and the sense of satisfaction one finally gets after finishing the last word of the book! The habit of reading books generally means the habit of reading books outside textbooks – be it poetry, or essay, or fiction or whatever that soothes your eyes and pleases your mind. This habit, once considered to be the most morally edifying of all habits, is currently on the wane among the youth who seem far better suited to habits rather un- bookish, such as electronic devices, new gadgets et al. The strength of readers in libraries is getting decreased with every passing day. The young people find it unexciting to consume even a fraction of their invaluable time in book reading! Reference for information from loads of books in library has shrunk to a click of mouse and the classic printed form of writing has found its place too in mobiles and tablets in its new avatar e-book. This is an alarming fact as if things proceed in the similar way a day will not be too far when the libraries will wear a deserted look and the best source of knowledge will become nothing but a waste. But however clichéd it may sound, the truth is, of all habits, reading books is still the best one around and can still be your best bet for an enlightened future. Reading lights up your world, broadens your horizons, gets you closer to things you didn't understand, and makes you wiser (well, if you know how to handle it!). Knowledge and ideas obtained from books can arm you with an observational capacity that you perhaps never imagined existed, and can cleanse your mind of petty thoughts. So friends, it is high time we buck-up and spread the joy of reading to those who hate to read and let us cultivate the wonderful habit of reading in the young minds to help construct a healthy society. After all, enlightenment is something worth striving for, isn't it? With this backdrop we are presenting the 14th issue of GCET VOICE- our annual magazine.

On 26th May, 2014 when Narendra Modi took oath as the 14th Prime Minister of India, he had millions of eyes full of hope looking towards him for their bright future. He was expected to begin a new regime of governance in the country. As the leader of the world’s largest democracy Modi was aware of the expectations from his government and was determined to live upto the expectations, he gave a glimpse of that with his first cabinet decision by constituting Special Investigation Team (SIT) against Black Money, since then a new Era of typical Modi style of reformative governance has begun in the country. Modi government has delivered upon its pre poll promise of “Minimum government Maximum gover- nance” by taking 100+ reform measures in 20+ sectors to streamline the governance in the country. From a reform as big as GST to as effective as Neem coating of Urea, this reformative style of governance has touched every sector from finance to Aviation and has been of every kind from being administrative to behavioral.
