My role model

My role model is Rajinikanth as I see him in movies, but I can't perform great stunts like him. I derive the essence of the characters he plays in the movies. Humble at the same time not bowing the head, Strong at the same time not using force on the week.

My family background

My darling wife a school teacher, father is a doctor, mother a home maker,
two younger sister's. My grand fathers were into hand loom weaving business.
After power loom's coming to our places they lost business and sought other jobs and are quite successful.

Thoughts on Education system of our country

Education without practical applicability is useless this especially applies to technical education.
Project based assessments should be given that are not so complex to students.
Soft skills, Language skills should supplement this.

Should to taught.
In health sector more medical colleges should be opened. Doctor to patient ratio should improve.
