Recently a reunion and counseling interaction was organized for trainees from Year 1, covering 1st to 4th batches of the program. The event witnessed active participation from the students, along with some of their parents who joined virtually. This gathering allowed trainees to share their experiences and discuss how the program has shaped their journey.

Secured placements mark a significant achievement for the program and its participants, helping them start careers in India’s booming hospitality sector. IIFL Foundation extends its gratitude to Mr. Vikram Lalvani and the entire Sterling Holiday Resorts team for their invaluable support in facilitating these opportunities.

In addition, the Tourism & Hospitality Skill Council (THSC) conducted the final assessments for the program’s last batches in September 2024, ensuring that the trainees are ready to take on professional roles in the hospitality industry.

Reflecting on this success, Mrs. Madhu Jain, Director, IIFL Foundation, said, “Seeing 29 of our trainees already placed in reputed hospitality roles across the country is truly heartening. This isn’t just a number—each one of these young individuals represents a story of perseverance and growth. To see them stepping confidently into roles at Sterling Resorts is a proud moment for all of us. We are thankful for the support from the Indian Army, NCC, government authorities, REACHA, and Sterling Resorts, who have made this possible.”

The Home Stay Training Program was inaugurated in September 2023 in presence of General Officer Commanding 2 Mountain Division Lt. General M.S Bains, Mrs. Madhu Jain, Director of IIFL Foundation, Brigadier Dr. P.M Bali, Dr. Kangki Megu, Principal, IGGC Tezu, Local District Administration, and Mr. Nikhil Pant, CEO, REACHA. Deputy Chief Minister Shri Chowna Mein, MP Shri Tapir Gao and others conveyed their wishes through video messages. This program was a transformative opportunity for the youth of Arunachal Pradesh. These individuals are advancing in their professional paths as well as emerging into role models for their peers, inspiring others to pursue similar opportunities and broaden their horizons.

This initiative aligns with the Ministry of Development of North Eastern Region (MDoNER)’s objectives of empowering and uplifting the youth of Northeast India. The success of the Home Stay Training Program demonstrates the importance of equipping young people with the skills and confidence needed to thrive in today’s dynamic job market. This program has emerged as a vital initiative to equip young people from the Northeast with essential skills and employment opportunities in the hospitality sector.

Be it conducting lectures at various prestigious institutions like IIM, Bangalore, Oxford University, and London, authoring masterpieces on esoteric subjects (including the thesis on anti-ageing, Sanatan Kriya – The Ageless Dimension) or taking seekers from across ages on spiritual sojourns to places of importance in the Vedic culture – He has continuously enlightened us about our history.

From revealing to us the deep secrets hidden under the Earth at the Patal Bhuvaneshwari Caves, interpreting the ancient Vedic symbolism of the Rollright stones in the UK, to uncovering astounding revelations of the Sigiriya rock in Sri Lanka, Ashwini Guruji has enlightened us about the Vedic relevance of each of these places.

Formed in 2002 to share and spread the gyan of the original and pristine form of yog, Dhyan Foundation, today is a global phenomenon with centres all across the world where Sanatan Kriya (Patanjali Ashtang Yog in its original, undiluted form) sessions are conducted free of cost as per the ancient Guru-Shishya Parampara.

Jun 11, 2022 by Praveen 0 Comments #drone technology, #Presidency University, #Students

In a 2-day ‘Innovative Project’ EXPO that concluded today, students of Presidency University Bangalore School of Engineering presented over 500 innovative projects across various disciplines, the most significant ones using drone technology for defense applications, Intelligent Transport systems and smart city projects.

A total of 2800 students in groups of 6 each participated to present these 500 projects on latest technology solutions relevant to the society like health care, automation, agriculture, safety technologies and many more.

The Chancellor of Presidency University, Dr. Nissar Ahmed presided over the 2 -day Expo and congratulated all the students.

“The ‘Innovative Projects’ concept of our university provides an excellent opportunity for fresh undergraduate students to build their innovative ideas using Arduino and Raspberry-pi. Innovative projects are also an excellent platform for the students to interact with students from other departments to enhance their research abilities and encourage interdisciplinary projects,” explains Dr. D. Subhakar, Vice Chancellor, Presidency University.

This concept allowed the students of various branches like Computer science, Electronics & Communication, Mechanical, Electrical and Electronics, Civil and Petroleum to make their own choice of group members and a faculty mentor. Utilizing intensive laboratory facilities, curriculum training and materials, students successfully completed their respective project work. This Strategical plan ensures that the students gain the ability to solve real time technology relevant problems and hence make each student industry ready.
“It was interesting to see enthusiastic students work on such relevant projects which are the need of the hour to solve societal issues,” said Dr U Chandrasekhar, Program Director at Wipro 3D who was the Chief Guest on the occasion.

“It is a unique opportunity provided by our university and we are the first to issue Embedded boards to each project team with huge investment in setting up the multiple Innovation Lab units. This will assist students to come up with their own new project ideas and build them using Embedded boards which will increase the knowledge base of future engineers so they interact with industry-standard technology before they graduate,” adds Dr Divya Rani, Innovation Project Coordinator at Presidency University.

A few noteworthy projects by the students were:
Drone technology for military applications
Intelligent Transport systems
Women and children safety devices
Smart Irrigation systems
Smart city projects like automatic car parking systems, health care, surveillance, road safety etc.
The first three Prizes were given to the students for the projects titled
