'The only thing that motivated me was my desire to attend school' - Ramaswamy Venkatarajan, XLRI, IIT, Flipkart PPO holder

Most people who have made to B-school following a stint at an IIT would reckon that getting through such reputed institutions was a task unto itself. Most of us though, happen to be able bodied people. What about people who suffer from debilitating medical circumstances? I had the opportunity of talking to one such person in my batch who is one of the handful of people in this world who suffer from autoimmune disorders - he also happens to have laurels like an IIT degree, work experience at TATA Motor Finance, a seat in XLRI-BM and a PPO from Flipkart under his belt. He is Ramaswamy Venkatarajan. Below is an excerpt from our conversation; hope this provides as much of inspiration to you as it does to me, and reinforces the fact that nothing is impossible!

Chakravyuh'15 at IMT Ghaziabad

“Chakravyuh” the word itself brings forth the reminiscence of the antiquated war zone situation of Indian history. This term evokes the sense of wild rivalry, boldness and grandeur. At IMT Ghaziabad, Chakravyuh, the annual sports festival is no less than the war zone it symbolizes and has rightly built its reputation as the Olympics of B-schools in India. This event is being held as a custom since 1993 as a part of the 22 years old legacy of IMT to keep the sporting spirit alive. It has never failed to amaze the participants with its inexplicable splendor every year. The 23rd edition of this 72 hour non-stop sporting extravaganza is scheduled to be held from February 12, 2015 to February 15, 2015. This event would kick off with a four kilometer marathon on the roads of Ghaziabad tending to a social cause of “Road Safety” as a part of CSR (Corporate Social Responsibility) of the event.

Well, this is what exactly happened when SOUL – Society for Objective and Unified Learning, a special interest group at IIM Ranchi, organized yet another successful season of Beg Borrow Steal for the students here.
