Fairpencil – An initiative in the field of Architecture

According to Henri Matisse, “Creativity takes courage.” And, when it comes to leading with artistic skills people from Udaipur are never limited to a backend.

Graduate from Dr. DY Patil College of Architecture, Pune, Yatish Jain is born and brought up in Udaipur. But his enthusiasm and background of dealing with buildings encouraged him to develop something in response to growing architectural needs and problems faced by many in designing.

This was the core that made him began his journey from Arihant Property Dealers to FairPencil. And, while knowing about his online vision to help future and existing architects, we also learned many things in thoughtful conversations.

What is FairPencil and how it is helpful to people?

“It is an initiative created with an aim to give all type of ideas and details about the designing of a house and other spaces. Initially, if you will take a look at FairPencil, we intend to add guidelines, blogs, and even more for the people who are related to designing of space and construction. Or, the ones who are thinking to construct and design their house in an entirely new way.

In the base of FairPencil, we are starting with the FairPencil calculator, design blog, and Vastu Blog to let people confront with all the details of new construction and renovations.

In an aspect of change, FairPencil includes an idea of connecting all people related to the field of architecture and design. At our platform, they can contribute with their time and knowledge to increase the reach of their ideas into the community of their similar interests.”

What are FairPencil Calculator, Design Blog, and Vastu Blog defining exactly on your platform?

“The concept of FairPencil is entirely dedicated to the genre related to design & architecture. Students who are new to the field of construction, studying in architecture school or college and willing to create spaces creatively can take help from our blog. That’s why all the sections are specified accordingly for their convenience like

Fair Pencil Calculator is a free plot area measurement architectural calculator that works as a tool to figure out and fix requirements of the project in given area. With its help, it is simple to measure the inbuilt areas like the garden, parking, and the building spaces as a number or rooms and their sizes.

It’s self-explanatory to use, and at the end, it gives the outcome of all the values entered in this calculator.

Whereas, when you look into Design and Vastu blog section, both reflect ideas of designing any home with general needs, which are required for the outline of most types of buildings by utilising defined Vastu. As when you see the importance of Vastu is evident in construction for increasing positive energy, sacredness, and grandness of the structure.”

Fair Pencil by Yatish Jain

Is there any special trait that makes FairPencil different from other blogs with the same concept?

“Yeah! FairPencil is one of its kind till now in Udaipur. As, most of all when it comes to architecture, students who are interested in studying designing & construction and the existing architects, who are looking for new ideas to construct spaces probably don’t find enough help online. And, other well-known architects & interior designers have blogs but on their sites, which are also hard to peek into again & again.

So, this is also a place where architectures can share their knowledge and let people reach them through a single scale.”

So, any plans FairPencil is looking to set-up further?

“Right now, on a starting base, we are enhancing our sections i.e. FairPencil Calculator, Design, and Vastu Blog. But, soon, we will be expanding to many different tools and also launch of our application through which people can get a base directly on mobile.”
Well! Yatish, we wish you good luck for your blog with a unique perspective. This is now in turn quite of a lead for architects, interior designers, and for the one who is introduced newly to architecture to reach the maximum number of people through a single platform.

Prompt Infracom – Connecting Network With Service Standards

‘INTERNET’ not just a source of knowledge, entertainment or connectivity. But an essential need acquiring entire world in it.

These lines are accurate enough when it comes to the bonafide aspect of Internet services and providers of it in a city. Same in the series, in the last few days, Udaipur has been stirred with a new name. Prompt Infracom. Talking to the two founder members of the company, Mr Tabrez Ali Syed, and Mr Mushtaq Ali Syed, we tried to find out the reason for this stir.

Mr Tabrez Ali Syed managing director of Prompt Group is having experience in the domain of sales and marketing of system integration of more than a decade. The person with a vision and positive attitude in life always love to work as a team member not as a boss. Strategical planning and market studies are key traits of him. Satisfaction of customers is always his prime concern. He loves his work and is readily available. Any of his customers can call him anytime.

Mushtaq Ali, director of the technical department, has a calm and composed persona with a cheerful gesture. His dedication is the backbone of the Prompt group. Having experience of more than a decade in system integration and technology, he is always ready to support the customers at any point of time.

Here are a few snippets of our talk with them.

Can you tell us more about the Prompt Group and how does Prompt Infracom fit in as a part of that group?

prompt infracom head founder

“Prompt Group came into existence more than a decade ago through the joint efforts of not just me and Mr Mushtaq Ali Syed, but our entire team. We started with Prompt Automation, security, and automation system integrating company and further expanded to Green Ethernet, our R&D wing, Star Technologies an IT solution provider and Prompt Infracom, an internet service provider. Our main aim when we started the different companies under the Prompt Group was to bring the latest developments in technology to our customers with excellent services unmatched by anybody else. Prompt Group follows that ethics and customer satisfaction.”

How did you envision Prompt Infracom when it was just a concept?

“Prompt Infracom was born with our realisation of the importance of internet service. These days for every individual and business, whether the small or big internet has become a primary need. So, to bring up this vision, we started it, and while starting this company, we visualised it as a smart and hassle-free internet service providing company that would cater to every segment of the market and would focus on being high on our consumer’s expectations. Be it speed, price or customer service.”

Your tagline, “Speed that exceeds Expectations” shows your focus on the high-speed internet. Is it a different aspect of your company?

prompt infracom

“We would say that you are partially correct. With our broadband speed of up to 100Mbps and it will be increased as per market expectations. We are keen focusing on providing hassle free high-speed internet services to our clients, but that is not our only distinguishing feature. We at Prompt Infracom make every possible effort to know the needs and expectations of our potential clients. Knowing that different clients have different needs and budget we have internet plans starting as low as Rs. 19.96 per day with speed of up to 10Mbps. Also, we have a highly dedicated team that provides 24X7 onsite service while catering to the individual needs of each of our customers. Our latest offering is Fibre Optic Cable powered Internet service which is faster and more reliable than Air method.”

There are many other companies also providing similar services in Udaipur. How do you plan to keep ahead in this competitive environment?

“We believe that a company can only get success when it has loyal customers. And this is made possible by our business through continuous innovation and by taking care of our clients. We value feedback from our patrons and encourage them to express themselves in different creative manners. This enables us to create longer, mutually beneficial relationships with them. In addition to this, our in-house Research & Development department aims at making continuous improvements in our services so that we have something new to offer to our customers from time to time. Our sales team also works very efficiently to connect with every customer to solve their ever-changing needs.”

What are your plans for Prompt Infracom?

“Right now, our primary aim is to make Prompt Infracom a household name for internet needs, all over Udaipur. Also, we plan to expand our services beyond Udaipur to other cities of Rajasthan shortly. We would like the people of Rajasthan to experience the top notch services that we are offering.

Prompt Group believes that it cannot grow without the employees and the consumers, whose hard work and loyalty have brought success to the companies.

AKSHADHA – Expression Of Soulful Poetry By Aradhana Pandya

Poetry! A combination of emotions or just mere thoughts of a person combined in a writing format to represent a preaching in short form. Whatever you take it, in the world of words, poetry is not just limited to these two things. It’s more than that. And, to understand and explore more about poetry, a glance through ‘Akshadha’ was worth to catch up for.

This Hindi poetry book is written by Aradhana Pandya, B. Tech student from Pacific College, Udaipur. She unlocked a heap of enormous emotions in the form of her symmetrical and asymmetrical poems. And, what we got from Akshadha – God’s blessings, let’s find out.

Audacious concept in poems

Akshadha_hindi_poetry

As per our read to Akshadha, we found a bold objective weaved in it. And, this goes quite suitable stated at the book cover as well enrolled with the name of Aradhana Pandya ‘Bebaak’.

While reading all her poems and reciting them within the heart, a sense of attachment with all those thoughts revealing the concept of a girl’s inner voice, independence, and concern about nation was questioned in the poetic lines.

A special thing about the book is that all poems are precise, specific, and put something meaningful to reader’s mind if a person is a fan of poetry.

Throughout the poems, one can experience a sense of voice speaking while expressing an agony about the social situations in the simplest form of words that are understandable even by the ones who are not so aware of poetry writing and recitals.

Aradhana’s notion and inspiration behind her book

Aradhana Pandya

Apart from a perspective, when we asked Aradhana about her entire journey, she elaborated her thoughts with the firmness that, “Akshadha is influenced out of common cases and issues that are often heard in newspapers. I still remember the case of ‘Nirbhaya’, Delhi rape case that extremely offended my thought process. And, then there was a flood case of Uttarakhand, in which many people died, and some were not able to reach their home even. All these societal situations affected me to the core, that’s why I thought to express something in my way through my skills of poetry.
When it comes to inspiration, I was truly into pieces of writings since 8th standard. And, behind my book, I can say my parents and teachers supported me a lot. Most of all, I am thankful to my best friend Shivani Tyagi, who was always there for me and helped me a lot at every point from start to the end of publishing. As when we went for sponsorships and asked for support, rejection was a part that was faced at maximum places. But, I didn’t give up on anything and continued with all the task either it was searching for a cover designer or doing a launch event on a small budget.” 

Aradhana! We believe that everyone must be proud of you. As it’s not that easy to take the initiative to express something in the world of literature that is just a pinch of news for many but should be considered when it comes to feelings of girl’s inner voice and deeds of sorrow that are often felt, seen, and sometimes remain unheard.

We wish you all the very best for future!! 🙂

“Initially, we used to give recruitment support manually, but later on, as the demand increased and we saw the future of digitization, we took the hiring business online and knew that it would become grand at some or the other point.

“Our USP goes with Specific Recruitments and our concept of Earn & refer. If we talk about special recruitments, major companies don’t hire head positions on a louder basis. Therefore, they directly reach us for assistance when it’s about the selective hiring of people.

So far we are entirely employer oriented, as in today’s scenario big brands and corporates like Reliance, Fullerton, and much more faces a lot of issues while doing the bulk recruitments. If a company began with its new branch in any city and confused about hiring people, we get to them in a convenient way as per their requirements in the single catch.

We also give many other services along with specific recruitment like:

  • Job fairs and campus placement
  • Professional Resume writing
  • Manpower Outsourcing & payroll management
  • HR Generalist Training, and much more.

At our online portal of Shaleenjobs.com, there is a vast databank reaching many companies overseas and providing every support that is necessary for the candidates of other zones as well.

And, we not just offer online support but also manual support whenever needed.”

How you maintain competitive spirit being in environ when job portals face a lot of problematic situations and queries from people?

“If you will see through the doors, ShaleenJobs.com is the Top job portal in Udaipur. We are operating on manual basis since 15 years. And, on the online portal, it’s been 10 years as of now.

In our core concern, we focus on many job fairs so that youth get connected with the companies and our referrals directly.

We have organised more than 30 job fairs in last few months with an association of district employment department and colleges; just to name a few, we have in list B.N. University and M.G. College.

What are the achievements of Shaleen Jobs and your team so far?

shaleenjobs.com udaipur

“Well talking about its accomplishments, today ShaleenJobs give support in almost every city in India having 40+ placement associates, 150+ great recruiters, and more than 2000+ corporate patrons.

We started a new era of Campus recruitment with 25+ colleges and universities as our partner.

We have also done hundreds of recruitment in top managements of many reputed MNCs on the package up to 1 Crore per annum.

Apart from all this, we have 160 connected referrals that have been regularly in touch with us.

How young recruiter and HR Professional can associate with you and make their career? 

“Here at ShaleenJobs, we have created a referral system that helps people earn money just like helping others get a job. And, it can be from anywhere and anytime. For this purpose, we have a mobile app too where people can apply for jobs directly easily and quickly.

Apart from this, we stream around 50000+ job seekers applications every month. So that company can get best of employees and candidates can have a job according to their capability.

Our Mantra relies on Better to Best. We believe you should do what you love, and we provide the best job that a person wants because when we do what we like, that leads our profile to Go Grand.”

That’s nice!! So, what are your plans further for ShaleenJobs?

shaleen jobs team udaipur

 

“After achieving abundant popularity and success so far, we have established ourselves in Indore and Jaipur also.

Right now, on this 22nd June, Shaleen Jobs is going to celebrate it’s 10th anniversary with everyone while giving many offers and giveaways to all those who are part of our company in any way.

Living With Acid Scars But Not Broken: Sheroes Hangout Café Has True Stars

Can you imagine the pain of a cut, injection, or any thermal element that repels your skin unknowingly? Well, we just can’t! But what about the agony of those people, who have gone through ACID ATTACK?

Acid Attack Survivors, who faced a lot of struggles, pain, and unwanted questions of everyone without being at fault. They were attacked by some of the sick minds out of no reason, remained in horrible situations for a longer time and even going with it till date.

When we made our visit to Sheroes Hangout Cafe and met Ritu, Shabnam, and Bala, we got a feel of real she heroes, who not only signify themselves but all the woman that came up with a fire in their respective zones.

sheroes-hangout-cafe

Having a meeting with them while sitting in a comfort zone of Sheroes Hangout Cafe and knowing their story of life with the initiation of place. We got to know that their concept is not about making any profit or gaining sympathy. All they want is to raise awareness amongst the people to “Stop Acid Attack”.

And, most importantly, their campaign #STOPACIDATTACKS, which initiated on the 8th March is all about this objective to give strength and new hope to lead an independent life to those girls who survived an acid attack.

Words of Ritu

rupa_ritu_sheroes
Ritu in Blue dress with another girl Rupa

An acid attack survivor from Rohtak (Haryana), who is now heading in Sheroes Hangout Udaipur, Ritu exclaimed about the concept and how she fought with all the circumstances that are hard even to think off. And, while having a conversation about Sheroes, she said,

The first Sheroes Café came in 10th Dec 2014 at Lucknow. From their journey got its start, by the acid attack fighters and for the acid attack survivors. This café is not just a hangout place but also an inspirational zone to give them a job or to let them rise in any other field of education, business, or anything they want to pursue. Apart from all, at all the branches of Sheroes Cafe, there is no rate specified in the menu. People can wish to pay whatever they want. And, through all that raised funds, we pay for curative treatments, and other expenses, which a survivor requires the most.

As we have probably noticed in every field, it is a must to develop skills and the survivors who have gone through a lot are not much educated and wealthy as well to pay for their medical cause or any other interests. Whereas, we can’t deny this fact also that requirement of good-looking people is more everywhere. 

But, when you are in a condition, where you wake up with a face that is not the same now even after a lot of gut-wrenching surgeries and scars for a lifetime. It’s hard to live by! And, when your attacker is from your family itself, then question shouts in mind why me only?

After all this, it’s somehow hard to have faith, but then we know there are good people as well who are ready to support us in the best possible way they can.”

Remarks by Shabnam

It was hard to believe for us that a man who is a father of three daughters can do this cruel act just out of rejection. He made Shabnam victim of acid attack just to satisfy his ego. But raging out with strongness all the way from Uttar Pradesh, Shabnam fought for herself and is happily married now. When we asked Shabnam about her incident and cafe, in such a polite way, she stated,

Sheroes Hangout has been established to boosts the self-confidence of the survivors. As when we think of the attack, it still gives us a shiver in our mind and souls, but on the other hand, all we pray is it should not happen with any other woman. And, criminals should realise before doing this act that it’s not just spoiling the life of survivor but it is creating a black mark on their family as well.

We are here just to change thoughts and perceptions of people. Those, who are the victim, should fight for it because lawyers, police officials, or any other higher authorised people do not let family’s file cases and justice is not given so far. Even we were betrayed and dragged towards a sense of negativity after facing it all. But, losing hope and killing your soul is not an option.”

Bold Thoughts of Bala

Bala & Ritu together

Just to take revenge from her family, an aged zamindar from her village threw acid on Bala and her grandfather who died of the attack. She belonged to Uttar Pradesh, Bijnor, and while sharing her words with simplicity and boldness she uttered us that,

“Just to satisfy their proud and ego these persons do such things. And, people especially police are aware of the pain of a victim, but being in their contact just for a handsome amount of rupees they don’t support victims properly. Whatever happens, cases gets even more complicated with time and justice is not done, as it is supposed to be, because a criminal is set free on the power of money.

With all these situations, it’s hard to gain faith back. Also, we cannot judge people because trust factor remains a question. We don’t want consolation, nor we want money. All we need is every individual should understand that just to satisfy an evil thought of mind, you have no right to bid on someone’s life.”

On the endnote, we just want to raise this thing and ask everyone. Whose fault it is that these attacks are still happening? Why women are not safe? Why sometimes a family member becomes a curse to them? Do you have an answer?

Apparently, no one has!! But justification clears only one thing, that maybe our Law, Police, Society, and Principles have lost terms of dignity that we can’t protect and create the world for the other half of our community.

Hope never dies, but fighting with courage against all these acts can only get enlightened when we keep ourselves in their place.

Take Pledge Towards Something Better.

Once Upon A Genie – A Novel By Durriya Kapasi, Worth Reading Fiction!!

“Eliminating scars of fear in the boxing ring of life while fighting with a life-threatening disease, she survived like a star and emerged like a fire.”

durriya_kapasi_author

Durriya Kapasi is the name in the crowd that came in the highlights so far and chased her dream to become an author while fighting through all the hardships. An author from our Udaipur, who achieved her goal of publishing “Once Upon A Genie,” under the banner of Half Baked Beans, which is truly a worth reading novel and states the true meaning of friendship & love throughout its every chapter.

Behind phase of her writing life

durriya_kapasi_book_review

Durriya, a 29-year old beautiful individual, and a writer who is not just limited to her shred of creativity but she is an inspirational soul too. Born and brought-up in the East-African country, Tanzania while her ancestral touch from Gujarat, India, marriage was the reason; she came across to ‘the City of Lakes – Udaipur’. She met her husband Zaheer Abbas, online, and got married in the year 2007. Their son was born in next year itself, and both had a few happy years until her health started falling in 2013.

It all started with symptoms like sinus, indigestion, and a swollen lymph node that after a year with all wasted alternative treatments, she rushed to Apollo Hospital in Ahmedabad with deteriorated health. And, diagnosis, created a grim in her family when the reports elaborated Hodgkin’s lymphoma, a type of blood cancer. Durriya was at stage 3 and went through painful chemo’s that injected therapeutic drugs in her body. During all this chaos, she lost her ability to think clearly, and whenever she tried to write, every time ended up with a blank page.

Therefore, to distract her mind, she started playing games and scrolled through her Facebook feed. Durriya never left her belief in God and ray of hope always showed as a miracle with the improvement and treatment she passed by. In her confront to this uncertainty, her husband, Zaheer has always been her side and left the job to take care of her in the best possible way.

Durriya also explained, how obediently she followed doctor’s instructions to win a battle of cancer. In her entire recovery process, she took proper care of her diet, stayed active, and always made a remembrance to remain happy no matter what.

A glance to “Once Upon A Genie.”

durriya_kapasi_once_upon_a_genie

 

Her book relates to a fictional love story of a beautiful girl ‘Daisy’ with her handsome and super sexy Genie ‘Khalil Bin Muwahid aka Khali.’ And, with both the lead, one more character is present who reveals an essence of friendship into the story is, ‘Darren,’ Daisy’s best friend.

At the beginning of a story, when Daisy faces the misery of her Grandmother’s death, she was unaware of this fact that her grandma has left an unexpected gift for her ‘A trapped genie,’ who expressed his gratitude towards Daisy for freeing him. And, without holding any grudges, Khalil let her ask for 3 wishes. Gradually, their connection became strong and turned into love, which was beyond the rules of Djinn and a real world. Surprisingly, seeing their bond with each other, Djinn World’s rules were amended for their sake to let them live forever until Daisy asks for her 3rd wish.

But, out of the blues, choosing between her best friend and love, Daisy caught up in a dilemma to save the life of Darren through her final wish or to let her Genie be with her forever. Here come a turn and climax what Daisy decided to do?

Reading her novel and reaching to the twist by indulging myself into every sense of pain, surprise, joy, love, and friendship left an amusement that how gracefully she connected entire feelings in 32 chapters. Some of the glimpse at the end of the novel are pretty identical to Durriya’s suffering and life. We can say it’s worth a read for everyone who is fond of fantasies that can only be felt by the heart. 

And, by going through the life story of Durriya Kapasi, no doubt! We can say she is one such person, who dealt with unusual points of her life, but always with a charming smile on her face and few tears as well. She never gave up on her spirit and came out like a proverbial phoenix.

Udaipur Speaks

Happy Birthday Udaipur!! Celebrating Heritage and Rising

“ Aravali Ki Wadiyon Mein Janma, Sabhyata Ke Rango Mein Saja,

Itihaas Ke Panno Mein Lipta, Maharajao Ke Panth Mein Bandhaa,

Mewar Ki Rajdhani, Sundarta Se Sanjoya.

Sheher Kuch Anokha Sa, Pyaar Se Hai Piroya.”

Our beautiful Wonderland, Udaipur has turned 463 Years old. And, no wonder it’s the time of happiness and celebration for every native as our city has not only been through a lot of phases in all these years but it has also gained a lot of popularity in many sense.

When it comes to culture, heritage, traditions, and modernization, Udaipur has always shown its significance amongst everyone. Justifying its name meaning ‘Rise’, our city has always been open for all type of revolution.

And, on this special occasion, we would like to share a glimpse of information that probably everyone should know when it’s about Lake City:

History Pick-up

Founded in 1559, by Maharana Udai Singh II, Udaipur was established as the new capital of the Mewar Kingdom. And, behind the settlement of Udaipur, it was a sudden meet of Maharana Udai Singh with a hermit while hunting in the foothills of the Aravali Range. Their hermit blessed him and guided him to build a palace on the spot, assuring him it would be protected. Then, Udai Singh II consequently acknowledged a residence on the site. In 1567, Mughal emperor Akbar laid siege to the venerated fort of Chittor. At that time, to protect Udaipur from external attacks, Maharana Udai Singh built a six-kilometer long city wall, with seven gates, namely Surajpole, Udiapole, Chandpole, Hathipole, and so on. In today’s time, the area within these walls is known as the old city or walled city. And, being in the mountainous region, Udaipur always remained safe from Mughal influence despite extreme pressure.

Regarding other historical aspects, many other changes were seen before independence as well. As when it’s a catch of tourism, many foreign traders and personalities like Edward, Prince of Wales (1921), Lord Minto, Viceroy of India (1909), and several others visited Udaipur.

Udaipur’s Famous Catches

Known for its scenic locations, Udaipur is amongst the popular travel destinations to witness growing tourism each and every day. Astounding people through its cityscapes, Udaipur houses many beautiful places to look for like Lakes (Fateh Sagar, Udai Sagar, Swaroop Sagar, etc.), Palaces (City Palace, Monsoon Palace, etc.), Temples (Jagdish Mandir, Sahastra Bahu Temple, Eklingji, etc.), and much more.

In part of an economy, our city has a diversified base that includes Handicrafts Markets, Tourism, Metal & mineral industries, Agriculture and Retail sources.

In the scene of culture, our city has kept a balance between preserving the rituals and traditions of the past while influencing modern lifestyle and advancements. Dance forms like Kalbelia, Ghoomar, Kachchhi Godi, Bhavai, etc. are still performed in tribal communities.

And, when it comes to art, miniature paintings are amongst the most famous developed here. To display the forms of Rajasthani tradition, some local festivals like Gangaur, Hariyali Amavasya, Jagannath Rath Yatra, etc. are celebrated enthusiastically.

And, when it’s a part of entertainment and events, Udaipur is a city that is often recognised by many Indian and Foreign nationals for Royal Destination Weddings, Movie Shoots, Lake Festival, World Music Festival, etc.

Apart from all, it also justifies education by serving IIMU (Indian Institute of Management, Udaipur), CTAE (College of Technology and Engineering), and several other colleges and private universities.

Lastly, we can say, our Udaipur is a diamond, and we are proud of our city that has been an incredible land in its own.

Cheers to our mains!! Cheers to all of us…. WE LOVE UDAIPUR 🙂
