16 December 2010




Personality of the month:

Dr.Binoy Kumar Pani is a famous ophthalmologist of India. He was a student leader during his college days. After his post graduation he joined Tata steel hospitals and was very popular amongst his patients but the management had other ideas hence he resigned and had a clinic of his own.
Every year he has a free eye camp for the poor and needy in Orissa, Bihar and Jharkhand states of India.
His specialty is retinal, glaucoma and cataract. Last month I met him and took this photograph with my Canon camera. Behind all his success is his wife Pramila a very good soft spoken and family lady liked by one and all. She has given Dr. Pani two brilliant children one a girl and the other a carbon copy of his father. He is our personality of the month.

INDIAN ABROAD:
Sixteen of my next generation is in United States of America and few more are likely to join them soon. That reminds of 70’s when people from Orissa studied and worked in Calcutta (Kolkata) and we used to raise our eye brows, but things have changed with time, distance is not a problem due to fast transport.
Surprisingly TIME can be purchased now if you have money. The young generation are more practical, more parents loving, more patriotic more pro Indian and they contribute more for India than Indian staying in India. Thanks to the IT out break the real Indian talent is now known to the rest of the world.
Instead of discouraging them not to go out of the country we should rather encourage them to go out and learn some positive aspects of their working culture, etiquette, manners and behavior and come back to India to make it the best in the world. We have the best brains but we utilize it in wrong places and wrong way, we need a good leader not the present day politicians who have and will ruined the country. People like Prof:PBTripathy, Prof: Sukant Tripathy, Bikash Panigrahi and Priyanka Pani are few examples from our family. Out of which Sukant is no more, he died in a freak accident but his creations (Konark) are likely to hit the market soon.
