Prof. (Dr.) Manish Verma Director , JICM, said the “Live Project is a part of their curriculum and offers the opportunity to acquire work experience and to meet the professional development requirements of their degree”.

He asserts that “Live project is basically a specializations project to give students practical exposure of their learning in their one and half years. A live project gives the students experience of working within the constraints, requirements and deadlines of the industry, before their final placements. It allows the student to assist industry professionals and see in reality how the entire company/agency functions”.

Aarti Kadam, student PGDM-C said: Being a brand management student I got a life time opportunity to work with a big name like Future group. I got retail exposure which was always my area of interest and in this one month’s time the experience that I have gained from here would remain with me always. I am now looking forward for my final placements in retail sector.

Gousiya Khan, student PGDM-C said: Internship at Ogilvy PR worldwide gave me a life changing experience. Initially I thought PR is only about maintaining the image of a Brand or Person, but here in Ogilvy I realized that it is also about ‘Creating’ that image.

I was over whelmed to see brand name like British Petroleum, Dove and CFA in my live projects’. This experience helped me to understand how class room theories can be applied in an agency and also certain things that can be learned only inside that environment.

Rahul Singh, student PGDM-C said: I had a great learning experience working with Madison Rural division and a brand like Reebok. I realised the untapped market while I was doing the training and development of villagers, preparing a real communication strategy and setting up selling and distribution channels.

Shraddha Sonavane, student PGDM-C said: The live project at Percept Talent Management has not only given me a very different experience but has also been great learning of practical knowledge of agencies. Live project strikes the right balance in providing exposure with the interested area of work.

The students joined companies on 2nd Jan across India.

Ficino School in Mt Eden area of Auckland (New Zealand), which calls itself “values-based academic institution” and offers education for girls and boys from year one to eight, says about Sanskrit: “It has a wonderful system of sound and grammar, which gives the child an excellent base for the study of any language. Children love its order and beauty.”

Hindu statesman Rajan Zed has applauded Ficino School for fostering universal virtues and encouraging Sanskrit studies and adds that Sanskrit has a close relationship with other classical languages like Latin, Greek, French, German, etc.

According to Peter Crompton, principal of this school founded in 1997 where curriculum includes “food for the mind, food for the spirit, food for the body”, “Sanskrit with its almost perfect grammatical system…provides children with a roadmap for understanding English.” Sanskrit not only gives young learners a clear understanding of the structure of language, it also heightens their awareness of the process of speech, creating a greater understanding of and ability to, enunciate words clearly, Crompton adds.

Zed, who is President of Universal Society of Hinduism, in a statement in Nevada (USA) today, pointed out that Sanskrit should be restored to its rightful place and needed to be brought to the mainstream and hidden scientific truths in ancient Sanskrit literature should be brought to light.

Rajan Zed strongly criticized India Government for not doing enough for Sanskrit promotion. He asked India Government to do much more for the development, propagation, encouragement and promotion of Sanskrit in India and the world, which was essential for the development of India and preservation of its cultural heritage. Sanskrit also provided the theoretical foundation of ancient sciences.

Besides Hindu scriptures, a vast amount of Buddhist and Jain scriptures were also written in Sanskrit, which is known as “the language of the gods”. According to tradition, self-born God created Sanskrit, which is everlasting and divine. Oldest scripture of mankind still in common use, Rig-Veda, was written in Sanskrit, Zed added.

Mahatma Gandhi said, “Without the study of Sanskrit, one cannot become a true learned man.” German philologist Max Muller added, “Sanskrit is the greatest language of the world.”

Soumya, a second year Journalism student of JIMS, said, “The discussion was quite interesting and informative. We got an opportunity to interact with eminent personalities of the media industry and collect first hand information about the issues discussed during the debate.”
According to Ms Nirmal Bhatnagar, Dean Dept. of Journalism and Mass Communication, “Today our student had a very healthy interaction with the media leaders. They got to understand how the media perceive on this issue.”

In the present day, media is losing its credibility as the space for editorials are seized by the commercials. Media are moving away from the crucial role it plays in the society as an opinion maker. Commercialization is blamed for this major shift in the role. At the backdrop of these issues, the JIMS has taken a step forward and organized this media conclave to find out the possible solution to tackle the issues.
