OF INSPIRIA KNOWLEDGE
CAMPUS
Oftentimes, a radical and progressive change
requires a catalyst. Since ages, quality educa-
tion has always been that catalyst for inven-
tors, pioneers, leaders, and the greatest minds
on the planet. Education is an explicit inter-
pretation of freedom. It is the sole medium for
breaking the hell-bent boundaries of stereo-
types. Education is life.

There are so many memories that we created in the last one year, it would be unfair not to collate
all of these memories in one place and preserve it forever. Thus this annual magazine gives the
much desired opportunity and a platform to publish student’s thoughts and creativity that marks
their zest for life. The magazine not only serves as a chronicle of various activities showcased
by our college and members of faculty alike but also asserts our inner beliefs and perspectives
and aptly puts forward various achievements of students in their joint and personal capacities.
It is with this belief that I thank all those who have been instrumental in promoting the insti-
tute to greater heights of distinction with particular reference to our dear students who have
immensely contributed to the magazine. With a vision towards a shared future, I wish all my
readers the very best in their personal and professional lives as we continue to move ahead
with our vision of success.
Our institution has taken firm steps in strengthening the academic-industry interface through
student placements and industry interaction and a host of events and activities were con-
ducted to keep our students exposed to constant changes in the corporate world in order to
integrate the same into their path of learning.
The arrival of the second edition of INSPIRE
depicts the constant endeavour of Inspiria
Knowledge Campus in furthering its mission
of world class quality education, technology
driven academic delivery and an undying
focus on making students realize their
potential to the fullest.

OPERATIONS HEAD
We’ve attained this level and still, we notice the need to keep pace with this internet-
driven world, this advancing technology inducing digital in every sphere. Certainly, we are
living through such life-changing times – in a snap or, in a blink of an eye, things change!
Albeit the change, we introduce you to our Annual Magazine- “INSPIRE” which is akin to
a light revealing the institution’s memoir, struggles, principles, values, and missions. It just
feels surreal, evenly gratified & thrilled to have the first edition of INSPIRE being published.
In the originality of its creation and layout, Inspire Annual Magazine attempts to mirror
the values and the essence of the institution itself. Today, Inspiria stands in its new light
and abides by its principles, shaping the destinies of the youths through quality education
and training. Our Annual Magazine consequently intends to reflect and inspire the readers
in the excellence in writings and aesthetic visual representation, in its promises to pre-
cision and truth, and through fine discussions and editorial perspective and more alike.
It seems only yesterday that we walked into
a newly constructed campus. I remember ad-
dressing merely a dozen new faces and wel-
coming the fresh batch of students for the
first time. And here we are now- 5 years from
where we’ve started!
May our horizons continue to grow broader.
Regards.
Truly, this present
generation is rolling
quicker!

(HEAD - ACADEMICS)
It is my pleasure to announce the second edition
of our college magazine. The journey started in
the year 2015 with the introduction of four cours-
es. This year we will be offering nine courses for
the year 2019. We have been able to spread our
wings to include new innovative undergraduate
degree courses such as Sports Management,
Animation & Multimedia and Film & Television
Studies. We direct a lot of emphasis in the area
of liberal arts with a focus on critical thinking.
Students take part in a wide range of extra curric-
ular activities that are regular features in our aca-
demic calendar. Our students actively participate
in Sports and Games. Students have achieved
success at university level competitions too.
We have successfully completed a nation-
al seminar, where more than 25 faculty mem-
bers teaching different subjects from all over
India attended and presented papers. This year
we are starting inter-college paper presenta-
tion by the students to inculcate the culture of
research mindset within the student commu-
nity. Our library has become rich in terms of
collections of titles. Many renowned academi-
cians and industry professionals have shared
their experiences with us through lecture ses-
sion in our campus. We have also conducted a leadership talk program, where senior ex-
ecutives from IBM, NIIT, Infosys, NASSCOM among others, have addressed our students.
This college magazine is the place, where students, members of faculty, staff members show-
case their creativity and thoughts. We would also like to update the community as a whole with
our activities.
Preface
I wish you all the best for this endeavour.
With warm regards.

Social Media: A prominent
trending force in journalism
The advent of social media has revolutionized the way people communicate in the contemporary
society and reshaped the very nature of journalism practiced in mainstream media. The digital
space especially the popular social media platforms like Whatsapp, Facebook, Instagram, Twitter
etc has provided great avenues for the masses to fraternize, thereby eliminating the barriers of time,
space and distance. The primary reason for the rapid upsurge among the various social networking
sites is contributed to it’s ability to instantly connect people from across the globe within mili sec-
onds and also because smartphone can accompany with you in your pocket, not to forget the high
speed internet connectivity.
In the last decade or so, social media has undoubtedly become a dominant and growing source of
news and information for hundreds of millions of people around the globe. It has not only changed
the dimension of how masses consume news but also the process of gathering news. The chal-
lenge for mordern day journalism is to compete with this new digital media platforms which are ram-
pantly changing the media landscape. It has got quicker, immediate and more personal than anyone
could ever conceptualize. We are well aware that news needs to reach its targeted audience quickly
but with social media it travels even faster almost at the speed of light. The ability to publish or
broadcast news on social media platforms at anytime of the day from anywhere makes it extremely
time relevant compared to newspaper or television. Even the content is more dynamic since it can
be constantly updated much faster than television and newspaper. The readers or viewers can not
only witness the news content real time but also post and share views and feedbacks on the same.
Social media gives an opportunity to reimagine the public sphere with more transparency and pro-
viding much greater space for all citizens. Audience can now possibly have interactive dialogues
and social interactions with the Journalists. The conventional linear communication process accus-
tomed with traditional media forums is turning into two-way conversations thanks to social media.
Social media also provides ample opportunities to ordinary citizens to share stories and facts from
their neighbourhoods, locality, or community making it more consumer centric as well transforming
the traditional nature of journalism where only a certified newsman was allowed to report newswor-
thy information. Public awareness about socio-economic-political issues is very important and social
media is facilitating a lot in this regard.
Many issues which often gets ignored in mainstream conventional media have found new alterna-
tive space to express the content and garner public attention. The future of media and its role in dis-
seminating information will be constantly challenged by the inception of social newtorking platforms.
The phenomenal growth and success of popular social media forums in circulating newsworthy con-
tent is commendable with increasing powers laid on the hands of the consumers making it almost
impossible to hide or supress newsworthy issues pertaining to common citizens.
By DIPJYOTI DAS
Asst. Professor (BMS)

The digital space is truly promoting the very idea of free speech and expression pivotal for a dem-
ocratic society. But several challenges lies ahead since the digital space is still uncontrolled and
unfiltered, subject to misuse from vested interest.
Anonymity and lack of moderation are also some serious factors taken into consideration when we
take into context the role a fabricated content can have on society. Sometimes it’s difficult to trace
the veracity of a content as well as the origin.
However, the larger question still remains to what extent the consumption of news through conven-
tional media forums will be dented with the ever growing presence of social networking sites since
the former still dominates the news industry. Independence of media is a battle which the conven-
tional platforms are still aspiring for whereas the social media space till now enjoys complete eman-
cipation from any hindrances. Probably freedom is the one exception where social media is ahead
of the race compared to mainstream traditional media. Interesting days lie ahead to witness on the
overarching role social media may play within the periphery of the news media ecosystem.

I stare into the stormy sunset
And ache for dawn to come
I ask myself why -
The inability to accept
The story sunset
Leaving me thirsting so.
One day
I’m sure I will know.
I will feel the hues
That the sunset brings
As well as the calm grace
Of the newborn dawn
With equal ease - one day it will be.
When that happens
I believe it will
The day
That my spirit
Will be truly set free
And then
I woke up one day
And it hit me right away.
I flew as a bird set free
From The Faculty
MY SPIRIT
FLIES FREE

When I realised -
I didn’t belong to me!
Life owns us all
She allows us to fall
She watches us fly
She grieves and mourns when we die
So,
What have I to fear?
Neither hurt
Rejection - Nor tear.
Once I had realised
within my heart
That I was
But a part
Of a plan, of a scheme
This is -
Life’s dream.
The thought set me free
Like the way life wants
me to be
Higher and higher I soar
For fear is with me
No more-
So come and join me
As life travels through eternity
With you
And me.

This Left Feels Right – Looking
Into Decision Making
When it comes to choice and decision making we all get confounded by the number of options that
may lie before us; each promising a certain outcome with varying levels of certainty and ambiguity.
Yes, we’ve all been through such situations before and possibly we are facing the same at this point of
time. Humankind as a whole alone can think, conceive, articulate countless thought processes in their
mindswitheachhavingitsownreflectivescenariousplayedwithintherecessesofthemind.Whatmen
and women conjure in the deepest depths of their consciousness they themselves might never objec-
tivelyrealizebuttherationalpartoftheconsciousmindrushesintoprojectanabstractionofthethought
that we may somewhat comprehend. At the other level of the thought spectrum conscious thoughts
surface and present themselves in totality that incorporates clarity of mind, self introspection of the
deepest level, careful consideration and examination of scenarios that may aid in decision making.
Advances in the science of decision making informs us about research findings that helps to il-
luminate our thought processes. According to Ohio State University, generating at least three op-
tions is a game changer. It enables one to engage in ‘out of the box’ thinking. It always helps.
Dr.ThereseHouston,adecisionmakingexpertandauthorofHowWomenDecide,assertsthattoooften
weonlygiveourselvesonlyoneoptionanddeludeourselvesintothinkingit’sactuallytwo.ShallIdothis
or not? There’s actually one option present in purview – I’m going to make this change or I’m not going
to.. But if one gives herself three options, one can decide better by giving room to more possibilities.
A research at the University of California Davis by Dr. Jack Grinband asserts that if one post-
pones the inception of the decision process even as less as 50 to 100 milliseconds, it makes
the brain to focus attention on the most relevant information and shield out irrelevant distractors.
Pausing for six seconds – the amount of time it takes emotion chemicals to be fully absorbed
after release in the human system makes a better scenario to make more original, powerful lev-
el-headed decisions based on our goals. This means that control can be exercised over percep-
tual neurological processes to arrive at better decisions by resorting to the advantage of time.
By ARNAB SEN
Asst. Professor (BBA)

In all scenarios removing oneself from the contempletive situation that is in immediate reference
and looking at the problem from a third party perspective may not only lead to better and wiser deci-
sionmaking but it may also lead to a plethora of positive outcomes when pitched against the future.
The same has been propounded by in experiments at the University of Waterloo.
When we talk about decision making in our personal sphere which may range from the simplest of
choice making such as “which type and color of carpet I would like to purchase?” to the relatively
composite such as “ which are the critical, semi critical and peripheral factors that require serious
consideration for searching a marriage prospect” to the highly complex such as “which religion
should I follow that would lead me to self realization ?” one can adopt an equal perceptive premise
to arrive at optimal decisions that would be in the best interest of the initiator.
First of all, think about the problem at hand from a third person perspective to make sure that bias-
es, preconceptions are recognized, checked and kept to a minimum if not altogether nullified. This
would at the start assure you of a relatively neutral perspective of the problem. Then think of various
ways that you can find out to look at the problem; everytime differently from a different point of view.
Give yourself that much required time University of California Davisas possible for hasty decision
making do not yield best outcomes in most circumstances. Keep your emotions on check but be
emphatetic as well to respond to value based and emotional scenarios from a well thought, self de-
liberated perspective. See to it that your thoughts are not clouded by moral dilemmas or dissonance
of the mind and achieve a state of mental disassociation and liberation from the problem scenario
so as not to get unduly influenced by various overwhelming factors. Only then what you perceive,
feel, think and act upon will lead to the best possible outcome from the situation.
It is therefore more of a habit that needs to be consciously nurtured in our minds than a mere knowl-
edge of how to engage in productive decision making; training our minds to respond in the above
ways that guarantees optimal decision making would not leave us astray or delude us into a world
of oblivion but clarify our intellect and our senses through ways unprecedented.

What to do next? This is a typical question that excites, taunts and often haunts close to 30 million
kids in India who graduate each year..... For the chosen few - the enlightened; the confusion trickles
in the initial days of college boot camp and orientation and for the majority the ordeal stealths in
the fag end of the second year. There are clouds that encapsulate many in its unchartered and in-
substantial ethereal world of dust and haze leaving many in the impression of observed, self-devel-
oped and many times imposed skepticism that leads to an apparently-self-contradictory or logically
unacceptable conclusion. Inundated in the world of dissonance where one deliberately incites to
challenge one’s own ability and in that fabricated torment shifts the mind from the deemed sanctity,
peace and security of the shores to the wilderness and the ruthlessness of reality like misery per-
sonified.
Choices hover between abort or save mission! Like an arrogant and condescending dialectician,
the maleficient diety of ego and restrain tries its hoodwink in a desultory fashion attempting pre-
cariously not to judge others just because they have sinned differently. Life gets into a tizzy and in
a convivial tinkering between the possible and the probable as the fear of the impossible lingers
strongly behind.
TheDegreeofLife:Factand
Fallacy
By NEERJANG LAMA

In the universal law of obsequious fullness of the senses, this all may rather appear little dramatic;
but if it intrigues you, or acceptably terrifies you, then firmly move forward and salute yourself be-
cause you are an impartial and a reasonable person. Quality of participation can’t always be mea-
sured and I reckon you may feel utterly and completely wasted and this will last just for a while
albeit the elasticity depends on how each one stretches and distinguishes the timeline for their own
‘while’. Life can be found in abbreviations, acronyms, palindromes, and oxymorons making sly and
shy innuendos and juvenile delinquencies. The apprehension, which we beckon fear resides in all
of us and all that it asks is for your diminutive, though undivided attention, and some understanding
so it has a place in space, to live, breathe, like reparation to the emancipated soul and above all the
willingness to reciprocate in the mellifluous stream of consciousness. It is the law of nature and its
basic extinct of survival that concede beings to execute immediate, abrupt, represented, gradual or
a completely impromptu move to ameliorate, although never to deteriorate.
As we attempt to have a glimpse of life after degree; it ought to come to our realization that this is
where the comfort zones cease to exist. Many succumb fervently to this larger than life bolt from the
blue, without realizing that extensive and extended highly exciting and even far strongly loaded time-
liness awaits to be explored. Rise above from the appalled and indistinct chatters of the masses. All
it takes is a daring heist and it could net you millions. In a snap of a second, at times even faster than
the speed of light the pain pulverizes to extinction and from all mental famine life transforms into
a psychological feast. Go and be in all places in the world you want to be. Play, seek, manipulate,
appreciate and acquire. Become the best of the best.
To seize upon the opportunity, to grasp that moment of magic you need to leap forward with all the
gusto and might. Merely gazing from the threshold of their naive dwellings, cuddled happily in the
fortification of their womb of satiety, one can never reach out for the stars.
Sanity never breathes solely in a sanitorium of isolation like vapor, unseen. Sanity frets and swells in
an auditorium of openness, appreciation, and accolades. The alleviation does not transpire through
a conspiracy of swearing out loud, but by simply wearing the priceless smile and walking
confidently with grandeur to savor the flavor and celebrate the moment where people cheer and
applaud as you pass by. That would be victory forever!
They did it ... so can you...
The battles seem inevitable. The ammunition of verbs solemnly attaching adjectives to one’s prop-
er nouns. The degree sidewalks like the gentle strokes of the brush, attempting to utter and insert
the alluring artist in you. The canvas of life lays tranquil, barely being swithered by the feeble trials,
because it craves for the impetus of a plot, and as apparent, it may be, in a deluge of an emotional
frenzy of allusion, illusion, and delusion the best of human technologies can fail. Nothing substantial
can be installed unless it is instilled in our minds that the more we confront our fidelity and tragics,
the more we discover and logically deal with it to yield prolific gains. Gains that provide an intuitive
and innate sense about something momentous and monumental. Bestow upon yourself by yourself
the vigor, heat, and the rhythm to choreograph the dance moves, to swing, undulate and step on the
deck of aggrandizement so you bounce with glee; well coordinated with the jingles of the universe.

Growth & Development of Radio
Storytelling and Drama Program
in India
Storytelling is an art and this art is slowly and steadily generating good business for FM Radio in
India. Statistics showed a positive sign for FM Radio Industry and the good news is size of audi-
ence based is increasing day by day. According to AZ Research report over 64% population in India
listens to FM Radio every day.
Radio is one of the oldest mediums but it still stands tall when it comes to reach states AZ Research’s
Radio Listener’s Research Report. According to the report, more than 64% of people listen to FM
radio every day. They attributed the increased ac-
ceptance of FM radio to the ease of access.
Since electronic media is a vast term, I would like
to only focus on radio. In this research paper I
would like to throw a light on Growth & Develop-
ment of Radio Storytelling program in India.
According to TechSci Research report “India
FM Radio Industry Forecast and Opportunities,
2019”, the country’s FM radio industry is forecast
to reach $ 656 million by 2019. Over the last five
years, Delhi, followed by Mumbai and Bangalore,
Kolkata, Lucknow have emerged as the leading
markets for FM radio in the country. This is mainly
attributed to the large number of FM radio listen-
ers living in these regions.
We’ve grown up hearing the stories from our elders, every children loves to hear stories from elders,
it could be a grandfather, grandmother, mother, father or even siblings, these people became the
storytellers for them, before going to sleep they develop the tendency to hear a fairy tale. This illus-
trates the power of storytelling – why we often all fall in love in stories.
Introduction
By TAQUI HAIDER

“India FM Radio Industry Forecast and Opportunities, 2019” has evaluated the future growth po-
tential of FM radio market across India, and provides statistics and information on market structure,
market trends, market size, etc. The report includes FM radio projections and demand forecasting.
The report is intended to provide cutting-edge market intelligence and help decision makers in tak-
ing sound investment evaluation. Besides, the report also identifies and analyzes emerging trends
along with essential drivers, challenges and opportunities available in the Indian FM radio industry.
Radio drama is the art of performing stories, acts, or even full-lengths musicals to be broadcast on
radios. These productions have no visual aspect at all, and rely on the dialogue, music, and sound
effects to tell the story. In a period before television and films, radio plays were extremely popular, as
they were so widely accessible.
Radio dramas began as early as the 1880s, but
have roots back to the Roman playwright Sene-
ca, who wrote plays to be performed by readers
in a purely auditory fashion, as opposed to act-
ed on stage. In 1921, the first English-language
radio drama aired in Pittsburgh in the United
States. The response from the public was enor-
mous, and a year later, entire Broadway musi-
cals featuring the original casts would be per-
formed and broadcast. In September of 1922,
Schenectady’s WGY began airing weekly plays,
and this trend caught like wildfire. Subsequent-
ly, radio stations across the US. began airing
plays or one-acts regularly, and hosted scripting
contests to encourage more writing. Radio dra-
mas grew exponentially in popularity between
the 1920s and 1950s, declining only after tele-
visions became more common in households.
Radio Drama depicts the reflection of life in all spheres from very vast field of India and the world.
The variety of themes, such as social, historical, mythological, biographical, folk, abstract, science
fictions and family melodrama; the quality of presentation and ability to create mental pictures
through words, sound effects and music is called Radio Drama .

Neelesh Misra occupies a unique space on the Indian creative landscape, probably the only creative
professional to work across so many diverse genres. He writes Bollywood lyrics and scripts, narrates
stories every night on radio to a nationwide audience of 31 million people, is an award-winning jour-
nalist who now runs India’s first professionally run rural newspaper, Gaon Connection — and has
written five books and edited two.
His last day job was as Deputy Executive Editor of the Hindustan Times. He moved on to pursue
his love for writing and creating content that connects him with more and more people by means of
books, stories, songs, scripts and his voice.
As a journalist, Neelesh Misra has covered conflict and insurgency over the past two decades in
South Asia, travelling deep into the hinterland. His travels have taken him from the rebel heartlands
of Kashmir to Naxalite-dominated areas of central and eastern India, to the faraway north-east which
is home to some of the world’s longest running insurgencies. He has closely studied the Maoist
insurgency in Nepal. For his reportage from India’s insurgency lands, he received the Ramnath
Goenka Award For Excellence In Journalism and the K.C. Kulish Memorial Award in the year 2009.
Many stations of AIR broadcast plays in Hindi and their regional languages. Radio adaptation of
classics, novels, short stories and stage plays are also some of the highlights of Radio broadcast.
Besides original plays, a large number of AIR stations regularly broadcast family dramas with object
of eradicating deep rooted social evils and blind beliefs prevailing in the society. Serials projecting
current socio-economic issues are also broadcast on a regular basis.
The National Programme of Plays is an important programmme of Radio. The first NPP “PRAFULLA”
a Bangla stage play by Girish Chandra Ghosh was broadcast in July 1956. Since then, the NPP is
broadcast on every 4th Thursday of every month at 9:30 p.m. from all stations of AIR. The broad-
cast is in Hindi and its translation in all regional languages as well on the same day, date and time.
Through this NPP, the national integrity, harmony and colours of unity in diversity are presented to
our listeners.

The Mega Sporting event-
ICC Cricket World Cups
The ICC Cricket World Cup is the mega event of one day international cricket. It is conducted by
the International Cricket Council (ICC) every four years with preliminary qualification rounds leading
to the final rounds of the tournament. This event is one of the most viewed sporting event globally.
The first world cup was hosted by England in 1975. The event started on 7th June 1975. England
has organized the first three events and officially it was known as the Prudential Cup. All the
matches played in this tournament were of 60 overs per team and all were day matches with players
wearing white jersey and playing with a red cricket ball. Eight teams participated in the inaugural
tournament comprising of Australia, England, India,New Zealand, Pakistan, and the West Indies
(the six Test playing nations at that time), together with Sri Lanka and a composite team from East
Africa. West Indies won the tournament by defeating Australia by 17 runs in the final at Lords.
Prior to the 1979 world cup an ICC Trophy competition was introduced in order to select the non test
playing teams for the world cup with Srilanka and Canada qualifying for the tournament. The West
Indies cricket team won the tournament for the second time by defeating the host nation England
by 92 runs in the final.
England again hosted the 1983 world cup for the third consecutive years. Zimbabwe qualified to
play in the tournament through ICC Trophy Competition. Teams were divided into two groups of four
each. Each team played the other three in their group once with the top two from both groups ad-
vancing to the semi-finals. The Indian Cricket team was crowned the world championship title after
they beat the West Indies by 43 runs in the final.
The 1987 world cup was the first world cup to be hosted outside England. The tournament moved to
the Asian continent with India and Pakistan getting the previledge of jointly hosting the tournament.
The game was played 50 over a side as the daylight hours were less comparecd to the European
continent. Australia emerged as the champion by defeating England by 7 runs.
In the year 1992 the world cup was hosted by Australia and New Zealand, the two Australasian na-
tions.The tournament has undergone a vivid change in the context of the game in terms of coloured
clothing, white balls, day/night matches, and a change in the fielding restriction rules. South African
team for the first time participated in the tournament. Pakistan the second asian team emerged as
champions by defeating England by 22 runs in the final.
In the year 1996 the world cup tournament again for the second time moved to the Asian continent
with Sri Lanka getting the priviledge to host few group matches along with India and Pakistan. The
host nation, the Lankan Lions become the champion of the tournament by defeating Australia by
seven wickets in the final at Lahore.
By DEBASISH RAY
Asst. Professor (BBA-HM)

In 1999 the world cup went back to England. Australia beacame the champion for the second time
by defeating Pakistan with eight wickets in hand.
In the year 2003 the tournament was organized by the African nations comprising of South Africa,
Zimbabwe and Kenya. The number of teams partcipating in the tournament was increased from
twelve to fourteen teams. Australia emerged as the champion by defaeating India by 125 runs in the
final in Johanesburg.
The 2007 world cup was hosted by the Carribean Nations ( West Indies). The number of teams
participating in the tournament was increased from fourteen to sixteen teams. Australia emerged
victorious by defeating Sri Lanka in
the final by 53 runs (D/L method) as
it was a rain affected match.
The Asian cricketing giants i.e. In-
dia, Bangladesh and Srilanka hosted
the 2011 world cup tournament. The
number of teams participating in the
tournament was decreased to four-
teen teams. The host nation India lift-
ed the world cup for the second time
and for the first time in their home
soil by defeating the island nation
Sri Lanka by 6 wickets in the final in
Mumbai.
Australia and New Zealand together
hosted the world cup after 23 years in
2015. The final was played between
these two nations with the Australian
team emerging victorious for the fifth
time by defeating New Zealand by 7
wickets in Melbourne.
The 2019 world cup tournament is
the 12th edition of the tounament
since inception and is going to be or-
ganized by England and Wales from
30th May 2019 to 14th July 2019. The
first match will be played at the Oval
and the final at Lords.The format for
the tournament will be a single group
of 10 teams, with each team playing
the other nine once, and the top four
at the end of the group phase pro-
gressing to the semi-finals. The win-
ner will be decided at Lords on 14th
July 2019. The interesting fact about
this year tournament is that all the
matches will be played in a round
robin fashion.

Racism in English Language
Language is a representative of society’s beliefs, political situations, economic statuses and trau-
matic experiences. The power of language is to be the mute spectator and document all that goes
around acting like a mirror to society. It is through language, that Prospero controlled Caliban in
Shakepeare’s Tempest, Hitler created an outrage among the Germans to stay unified, V S Naipaul
enlightened us with the growing trend of “mimic men”, Martin luther King gave the striking phrase of
“I have a dream” which became a reality with Obama’s ‘Yes!! We Can’. There is a striking collabora-
tion between the ‘language’ and ‘culture’ of a particular place. A small research stated that in Span-
ish, a watch is said to walk, whereas in German, the watch functions, in French, the watch marches,
and in English , the watch runs.
English Language remains the dominating language all over the world and mostly in the colonised
nations, who could free themselves from the shackles of slavery and second class citizenship, but
could never emancipate themselves from the racism of the language. Even in the post colonial era,
the thought process of an individual is guided through English language, as we know it is the lan-
guage that taught us that, ‘Time flies, Watch Runs and Time is Money’, and on we go with the race.
The one who fails in the race, loses time as well as money.
English language remains such a
powerful tool for us to decide the
victim and the victor, the self and
the other, the white and the black,
the dark and the light. A small in-
stance can be taken from the re-
search of the play Tempest, by
Shakespeare, which highlighted
on the achievements of Prospero,
the man who occupied the land
of ‘barbaric’ people like Caliban.
He taught language and culture to
Caliban so that he could efficient-
ly carry out his responsibilities as
directed by his master. Was lan-
guage a liberation or bondage for
Caliban? Caliban used the same tool of language to create an outrage and revolution for freedom
as he realized how learning could bring change. “ The stone that the builder refuse will always be
the head cornerstone”, remarked by Robert Nesta Marley who is none other than the famous lyricist
and musician, Bob Marley, was born out of a Jamaican white father and Jamaican black mother.
Marley used the English language in the song to vital the effect of cementing his thoughts on being
shunned by his white family.

Will Robots Replace Human
Beings?
In today’s world ,we are in a phase where internet is a basic requirement. It is expected that in future
all the work will be done by robots .The devices working on Internet of Things or IOT are capable
of maintainig details about your health, to sense change in weather or to maintain the electronic
devices which include home appliances like electric light, Acs etc. In 2016, Hong Kong has already
developed the first humanoid robot named Sophia. Telsa is planning to start driverless cars which
will replace the drivers.
In 1942, Issac Asimov, science fiction author defined a robot as “”...a machine which may not injure
a human being or, through inaction, allow a human being to come to harm”. In todays world ,there
are robots which are being used to collaborate with humans to ease the work.They are known as
cobots.They are inteded to be used for interaction with humans physically. An Automated guided
vehicle(AGV) is a special type of robot which is being used for transferring heavy machinery using
marked lines on the floor
Introduction
Impact of Modern Technology on Human Life
• Unemployment: Robotics and Artificial Intelligence is replacing man power for certain jobs which
is no surprise. We all know that certain jobs are disappearing as those are totally being replaced by
machines. Industrial revolution has also led to unemployment but the fields were machines used at
that time were the ones having harsh environment
for human beings. It has also been predicted that
there would be large scale job losses again when
machines will have the capability to think and make
decisions.
• Dependability: Man has become fully depen-
dent on machines and has lost his creativity by
becoming dependent on machines. Many people
today struggle with simple calculations without us-
ing calculators and mobile phones. Though these
tools make our life simple, we may become highly
dependent on them.
• Wars and Destruction: The affiliation between
AI and nuclear war is acknowledge. Modern tech-
nology could be a major explanation for increasing
war because of producing of recent weapons.

Asst. Professor (BCA)

The sensing technology present in robot is very precise and accurate as compared to humans.
Their brains consist of the core functioning at its peak potential with nothing to hold it back.It can
process a large amount of data in speed which is uncomparable to human beings.They can work
for 24x7 for 365 days without any wages making robots a cheaper option as compared to human
beings.They can be used to work in harsh environment like mining . Even though the robots lack
the emotion ,the robots can make more logical and faster decisions “But will they take over man.”
• Environment: We are hooked in to fashionable technology that the power consumption has
enhanced. Increasing use of vehicles has increased air pollution that is damaging the environment.
The impact of technology on the environment is severe and is accountable for forceful climate
changes. Global warming is resulting to many diseases in humans. There is conjointly extinction of
many birds, plant and animal species due to the changes in climate.
The answer will be possibly no because the robots require training which is being provided by the
humans.They work according to the commands which is fed into the system’s memory.The humans
have a special power of adaptability to change which is provided to them from nature.Whereas
as the robots are totally dependent on commands,they cannot change their code themselves for
different environment.They are mostly made to work for a particular environment. They can not
understand emotions eventhough they can generate which is composed of a sequence of facial
expressions and/or gestures. Since they lack emotions, sometimes the outcome of decision can
be very evil.
Even though ,the robots can defeat humans in some aspects but the relationship between man
and machinery is dependent on each other as man need machinery to ease his work and machin-
ery require man to provide the commands to machinery.
Is Robot over Man?
Is Man over Robot?

The world is spinning on an electronic spindle, where the cyber threats are the considerable accounts

on16th of September 2018,the biggest whistle-blower leak in history of FIFA,bug within the website
of Google+was sharing the access to the accounts and data from Google+ profile between 2015 till
March 2018,cyber-attack on UBER which happened to expose 57 million customers and driver data
on 2016, cybersecurity breach on BRITISH AIRWAYS which affected around 380,000 transactions,
around 2 million T-Mobile customers who were based in the US had their account details breached
in which their names, email IDs, account numbers, billing details and encrypted passwords. Cyber
defenders need to be very circumspect on some probable challenges that might be :

Poisoining of data set: to be realistic, Artificial intelligence is been used to anticipate and detect
the cybercrimes by providing the model with trained data. A Generative Adversarial Network (GAN) is
a class of machine learning systems where two neural network contest with each other in a zero-sum
game framework. This technique can generate photographs that look at least superficially authentic
to human observers, having many realistic characteristics. Now using this technology its a quite handy
job to predict the algorithms and target the trained data sets to poison the whole model.
Hacking of blockchain technology: a way for one Internet user to transfer a unique piece of
digital property to another Internet user, such that the transfer is guaranteed to be safe and secure,
everyone knows that the transfer has taken place, and nobody can challenge the legitimacy of the
transfer. But it’s still early in their development, and researchers are finding bugs in some of them. So
are hackers, who have exploited flaws to steal millions of dollars’ worth of cryptocurrencies.
Target on the cloud: Cloud computing is the the use of various services, such as software de-
velopment platforms, servers, storage and software, over the internet i.e remotely, often referred to as
the “cloud”. This makes super-tempting targets for hackers. Their intensity is to breach the company
servers as well as to tamper the clients profile too. The world leading companies and organisations
can afford the cost of cybersecurity defences but this will effect the small industries.
The extension of technology is in its pace wich require a broadspectrum of security to protect the
human race from themselves economically and socially.

SILIGURI
Youthrun 2019
When “Youth” painted the city Orange!
Inspiria Knowledge Campus hosted the second edition
of Inspiria Youth Run on 24th February 2019. It was a
chilly sunday morning. The empty roads and the quiet
ambience was the obvious proof that the city craved
more of the sunday morning slumber. However, it was
otherwise at Inspiria Knowledge Campus. From the
dawn of 5.00 AM onwards, the campus brimmed with
the volunteers and the enthusiastic participants for the
marathon. Running, in fact, is the only sport to be highly
recommended by the doctors no matter what ailment
you are suffering from and how old you are!
So, what’s the purpose behind the Inspiria Youth Run?
Inspiria Youth Run was a vision to provide high-quality
education for all. It was formed with a mission to raise
funds for educating the underprivileged children in so-
ciety and to make the youth of the country free from
the slavery of illiteracy and ignorance. Mr. Atul Gupta
(Managing Trustee, Inspiria Knowledge Campus) him-
self actively participated in the run. The marathon fur-
ther strives to instil the sportsmanship and to lead a
healthy lifestyle among the citizens.

Inspiria Youth Run 2019 received an excellent response from a huge number of participants who
came forth for the run, supporting the cause. The only one of it’s kind of marathon to be held in the
entire North-eastern region, having participants from Sikkim, Bhutan, Nepal, as well as from various
regions of Hills and Plains including those from the border town Jaigaon.
The marathon was divided into two categories- 5 km and 10 km. The participants from the regis-
tered category had to cover the trails that combined Himachal Vihar, City Centre Mall area, and
Uttarayan. There were volunteers appointed at multiple spots along the racing track to guide the
runners with the direction of the route.
The “Guest of Honor” for the Inspiria Youth Run 2019 was the famous and legendary personality,
Mr. Murlidhar, Former BSF Commando, trainer for Olympics 2020 in New Delhi. He is the first Indian
to win a Bronze medal in “World Marathon Run” 1988. He has won 20 Gold Medals,11 Silver, and
7 Bronze medal in “Marathon Run”. Overall, he has won 40 Medals in both the National and Global
category. The marathon began with the “Flag Off” ceremony by Mr. Murlidhar.
The 10 km Run was scheduled at 7:00 AM and the 5KM Race at 7:15 AM respectively. Each partic-
ipant was given a bright orange T-Shirt with a printed insignia of “Inspiria Youth Run 2019” in black
and bold. Each participant was also given a unique BIB number for the marathon. The race was
quite a beautiful sight to behold. The runners traversing the marathon trails splashed the city with
the hues of orange underneath the mild golden morning sunlight.

The event was a huge success because “Inspiria Youth
Run 2019” received support from those that preferred
a change in the society through education. The event
ended with the prize distribution ceremony where each
participant was awarded a certificate of participation and
a finisher medal as an acknowledgment. The winners
for both categories were awarded the Winner trophies,
a certificate, a finisher medal, and a free one Year Gym
Membership from Gold Gym India.
Inspiria Knowledge Campus continues to help and sup-
port the change through education and hence looks for-
ward to meeting you again in next year’s youthrun.

On 27th November, 2018, a session where the students of Inspiria Knowledge Campus got an
insight into the growth and evolution of various industries, leadership and entrepreneurship which
was a great opportunity for them.
Dr. Mohan started with the most basic question- ‘What was the first Industrial Revolution?’ and
gave us an understanding of assembly line manufacturing production- T assembly line by Hen-
ry Ford. He also talked about Moore’s law, founded by Gordon Moore, cofounder of Intel, which
states that the number of transistors in a dense integrated circuit doubles every two years.
In an era where technology has its impact in every part of the world, he made us realise that we
youngsters are lucky to be born in this period. This is the age where technology has grown expo-
nentially and youngsters can gather knowledge from within their fingertips. He gave the figure of 5
billion people having access to technology directly or indirectly in the world population of 7 billion.
We indeed are blessed to study in such an organization where we get to meet the distinguished
leaders and personalities and get to know their stairs of success towards leading the world.

The morning of 27 November, 2018 marked the opening of the Iconic Leadership talks at Inspiria
Knowledge Campus.

ognized by the World Information Technology and Services Alliance (WITSA) with a lifetime achieve-
ment award for outstanding dedication to the growth of the global information and communications
technology industry.
MR. SOM MITTAL

As Mr Mittal addressed his views on corporate leadership he filled the ambience with intel-
lect, wisdom and power. He emphasized the importance of strategic directions and the benefits
of good leadership. He advised students on how to cope in an ever-increasing change in mar-
kets, customers and technology. He was highly impressed with the variety of courses offered at
Inspiria and was awestruck seeing the multiracial, multicultural mix of the students in the campus.
He appreciated the sculpturesque infrastructure of the college and its objective of transferring

The Future Of Employment Opportunities
As a part of the Inspiring Leaders Talk 2018,
Inspiria Knowledge Campus was proud to host
Ms. Debjani Ghosh, President NASSCOM on the
30th of November, 2018 that marked the final day
of the programme.
Debjani Ghosh is the fifth President of The Nation-
al Association of Software & Services Companies
(NASSCOM), veteran of the technology industry,
and a champion of gender diversity in corporate
India, Ms. Debjani was the first woman to lead Intel
India, Manufacturers’ Association for Information
Technology (MAIT), and presently NASSCOM.
Ms. Debjani Ghosh commented on the scenic

She spoke about how she was the first non-engineer to have made to Intel and grown and learnt
exponentially over the years as her firm belief in herself was instrumental in steering her career
growth and asked students of Inspiria Knowledge Campus to imbibe the same spirit of courage and
desire to strive for and excel in their chosen fields.
Students from various streams of Inspiria Knowledge Campus questioned Ms. Debjani on ‘career
choices to be made’, ‘dichotomy of choosing between further education vis-a-vis getting into jobs’
and ‘initiating start-ups’. Ms. Debjani replied to a flurry of questions by saying that “it’s a personal
choice between choosing higher education and jobs” but at a personal level she upheld the ne-
cessity for practical training which enables learning and growth. She also said that knowledge
and information about career choices must be gained and adjusted with real world scenarios to
obtain a realistic understanding of employment opportunities that lies in front of young graduates.
Ms. Debjani Ghosh spoke about how Artificial Intelligence has already started to replace many
components of jobs and how by 2022 artificial intelligence would be able to replace many ba-
sic human jobs that are repetitive by nature. She quoted Alibaba founder Jack Ma who said that
schools and colleges should teach students how to be different from machines and said that one
must go on making milestones in one’s career despite obstacles that may come along the pathway.
Students were engrossed with the interaction and they benefited immensely by being imparted with
knowledge-led clarity on career choices which greatly expanded their mental horizons and inner
motivation to excel.

MR. RAJENDRA S. PAWAR

wear costumes and fashion accessories to represent a specific character. Cosplayers often interact
to create a subculture, and broader use of the term “Cosplay” applies to any costumed role-playing
in venues apart from the stage. Any entity that lends itself to dramatic interpretation may be taken
up as a subject and it is not unusual to see genders switched. Favourite sources include anime,
cartoons, comic books, live-action films, television series and video games.
INSPIRIA KNOWLEDGE CAMPUS set forth a fun-filled evening to celebrate cosplay everyone
dressed up like our own favourite comic, cartoon character and represent themselves for the same.
It was celebrated on 18 th January 2019 evening, filled with laughter and unforgettable memories.

the prominent investors of Siliguri. It was a proud moment for Inspirians when they bagged the first
prize in the competition. Their business idea was about strolley – a smart way of shopping. The judges
liked the idea and suggested some measures to add to
the concept.
By evaluating their creativity and their ideas of the smart trolley, we can conclude that the blossoming
entrepreneurs of Inspiria Knowledge Campus are keeping up well with this technology-driven world.
Their innovation was extremely appreciated as it makes shopping delightful. The significant aspect of
strolley is that it is time friendly. You need not require taking out the goods that you’ve picked, as it will
be automatically calculated inside the strolley. Isn’t that remarkably smart?
The workshop went extremely well as it brought various new ideas and creativity in the limelight. It was
a great learning and delightful experience for all the students. They look forward to being a part of more

The air of valentine’s week spread it’s magic on Inspiria Toastmasters Club on 9th February 2019.
To celebrate the joy of love, the club organised a special session on Saturday. The plans on how to
make it a perfect blend of entertainment as well as an educating session went on for weeks until
the final day. Everything needed to be perfect and fun at the same time. This event was also a part
of one of the goals of the pathways, completing which a member check marked on that objective.
Therefore, it was an important event for the member as well as everyone in the club. Selective
members of the club helped in planning and execution of the event.
On ‘the day’ members reached earlier than the scheduled time and helped in decoration and set-
ting up of the location. The president along with SAA and VP Membership took care of the guest’s
requirements and final touches before the beginning of the session. After the stage was set and
the audience all seated SAA called for the onset of the session with the oath taking ceremony and
reading of general rules and regulations. President then welcomed the guests who gave their short
introductions and wished all the best to the speakers. TMOD then took over and with the theme
of ‘L’Amour Toujours-Love Always.’
the session proceeded.
The variety of speeches was
a delightful experience for all
spectators, and the showstopper
like always was the table topic
session. While speakers imag-
ined themselves to be different
objects and delivered their ta-
ble topic speech on the same it
filled the crowd with glee and not
even the mixture of bad weather
and outdoor location could dull
that. All smiles, laughter and ap-
plause roared louder as the bal-
lots for the bests were present-
ed. Accompanying the ballots in this special session were beautiful roses for the ballot achievers
and other categories of –
1. Speaker with zero grammatical errors.
2. Fastest response to the listener’s questions.
3. Maximum usage of the Word of the Day
4. Least number of fillers.
With the aura of love and happiness spread through beautifully crafted speeches and of course the
flowers, the President adjourned the session after feedbacks and suggestions from the guest. Over-
all it was a successful event with many lessons of its own always accompanied with tips on the ar-
eas that the club needs to work and improve on. Also, maximum members participation proved the
phrase of, ‘United we stand, divided we fall.’ to it’s most extent. The speeches merged with the theme
of the day and the inclusion of the word of the day, ‘reverie’ set just the desired mood and atmosphere

The Toastmasters Club Chartering ceremony was long
awaited. This prestigious label of honour was going to be
an important milestone for the newly formed club at Inspiria
Knowledge Campus. It was a very momentous day as the
first club officers were to be installed and charter members
to be inducted. There was joy and thrill as the exuberance
of emotions floating in the air filled every soul with pride
and delight. One just couldn’t miss the glaringly visible
smile on the students that stretched across the universe.
The congregation was overflowing with animated prattles
and interactions were being exchanged on very high notes,

newly appointed chartered members just weren’t able to hold
backtheirgrinsastheywerealldelighted,excitedandignited.
It started almost as an impossible dream in April,
2018 when the Management team of Inspiria Knowl-
edge Campus flagged off the Toastmasters club and now we proudly claim to have
achieved the eminent status and the grandeur of being a ‘Distinguished Member’. This
is completely gratifying and has such a positive effect on the members as this proud-
ly adds another right and bright star to the galaxy of the ‘Inspirian’ stories of success.
The essence of being a Toastmaster is the desire to improve one’s communication skills. Pur-
suing on the popular adage of finding a remedy rather than finding faults, the club has
soared high, saying bye to its fear of public speaking, marching relentlessly and gracious-
ly on it mission of helping others and to become effective communicators and leaders.
Appreciation and a token of profound appreciation goes to both our Distinguished Toastmasters
Mr Ayan Pal and Ms Jennifer Ghosh. They were indeed a valuable addition to the event and
were delightfully entertaining personalities. Both witty and informative, their parlance drew the
audience in and held their complete attention. There was not even one single dull moment. Their
assertion triggered new ideas that will cer-
tainly benefit the Inspiria Toastmasters club.
The Charter event has boldly showcased
Inspirians to the world for being the pio-
neer, the first-ever Toastmaster’s group
amongst all North Bengal academic insti-
tutions. In the coming days, we are going
to see some incredibly exciting moments
when our members thrust their limits,
steering them beyond their comfort zones
to explore new opportunities of effectu-
al communications and global leadership.
Let it go, let it flow, let it grow, let the world know

As it is said that success comes from 1% inspiration and 99% perspiration; though challenging,
the outcome of the groundbreaking Toastmasters Charter ceremony held at Inspiria Knowledge
Campus has been highly worthwhile and rewarding.

First year Media Science students were taken for an industrial visit to Doordarshan
Kendra, Siliguri on the 6th of February, 2019. Industrial visits are a vital part of any
professional course where students gain practical insight into the field. Doordar-
shan, for any media student, would be a prominent area of interest because it was
the first TV channel of India.
This visit turned out to be a good learning experi-
ence. The students were divided into four groups,
each guided by a representative of DD. The stu-
dents were taken around the Art Station Room,
PVR Room, Studio and the Editing Room.
They were briefly explained how the videos are
shot,synchronized by audio, edited, uplinked to
the satellite and downlinked and distributed as
programmes to viewers. The machines and it’s
technicalities in each room were discussed con-
cisely.The students spent 3-4 hours studying and
assimilating the valuable information.
The main motives behind the trip were:
1.Practical experience of the theoretical knowledge gained.
2.Hands on training of equipment’s.
3.Inculcating and developing a professional attitude.
4.Motivation and encouragement for broadcast media.
Overall, this trip was very resourceful and informative. It has helped the students to explore the
worldof their interest. Asst. Prof. Taqui Haider and Asst. Prof. Shubhankar Dandapat accompa-
nied the students.
Industrial Visit to
Doordarshan Kendra, Siliguri

Industry visit meets the gap between theoretical knowledge and practical instruction. This expo-
sure broadens the perspective of the students regarding the workforce and different industries.
Industry visit enhances the overall development in a student such as communication skills, team
spirit, leadership qualities, and much more.
With an objective to provide in-depth learning about the real-life environment of industry opera-
tions, Inspiria Knowledge Campus initiates an industrial tour for every subject. The
students of BHM 1st year were taken for an industrial visit to ABSOLUTE HYGIENE CARE, Siliguri
on 15th of January, 2019. Industrial visits are the essential element of any professional course
where stdents get good industrial exposure in particular fields.The visit was very enlightening.
The students were divided into two groups guided by an expert on ABSOLUTE HYGIENE CARE.
The divided groups were taken around the different
workstations having different laundry equipment to
experience the practical laundry cycle.
The main objectives behind the visit were:
1. To gain practical exposure to a commercial laun-
dry.
2. Hands-on training toward laundry equipment.
3. To experience the laundry cycle.
4. To observe the use of different stain removers.
Overall, this visit remained very resourceful and
enlightening. It has helped the students to explore
the Off Premises laundry concepts. A vote of thanks to Asst. Prof. Shoubhik Ghosh and Asst. Prof.
Souvik Sarkar for accompanying the students and making this trip a success.
Is learning restricted to a particular field? No learning initiates knowledge, practical or theoretical
- both in its own forms. Industrial visits add a different level of exposure . With this very motive,
Inspiria took a tour to Zydus Pharmaceutical Industry, along with its enthusiastic faculty and stu-
dents of BBA 1 st Year. The visit to Zydus Pharmaceutical Industry, Sikkim was a mixture of knowl-
edge and fun. The cleanliness and security
is what the students found the peak point of
the industry.
The first department was the Packaging de-
partment wherein the packaging systems
and devices were shown to the students.
This wasa followed by a visit to the ware-
house and the last was the quality and as-
surance department. After the visit to the
various departments refreshments were of-
fered to the students, marking the end of a
very fruitful and learning experience.

Inspiria Knowledge campus had organized an industrial visit on the 24 th of November last year
to Gujarat Cooperative Milk Marketing Federation Ltd, Siliguri. A team of 52 students from BBA
1st year along with three faculty members, Mr. Arnab Sen, Mr. Bijendra Sharma, and Ms. Shristika
Chhetri toured the Amul factory. Students were segregated into three groups, and three different
professionals from the industry explained to them the different procedures for the production of
milk and milk products like paneer, lassi, and cheese.
Students were thrilled to know the history of Kaira
farmers and their initiative in freedom struggle with
the guidance of Sardar Vallabbhai Patel, which led
to the establishment of Kaira District Cooperation
Milk Producer’s Union Limited. With remarkable
effort and quality, GCMMF endeavors to satisfy the
taste and nutritional requirements of the custom-
ers of the world.
The students learned the complete process be-
hind the making of paneer and ghee, tetra pack-
ing of milk and milk processing. They were also
told about the process of pasteurization, packag-
ing and transporting of the milk. A rapid round of quiz was organized where the students actively
won Amul chocolates. The faculty members and the students were served with refreshments like
Amul Cheese balls and French Fries, which are yet to be launched in the market.
It was an insightful and interactive visit, where the students understood the production processes,
products, and operation of one of the best examples of cooperative achievement in the developing
economy. Mr. Subhasis Kundu was highly hospitable and approachable to all the queries of the
students. Inspiria looks forward to such visits filled with infotainment in future.
