"Time for Indian Rupee"

It was asked by the government of India 17 months back when I was unaware of the challenge and busily working in my office...it came and went off my eyes and I could not pay heed to it, now I realize what I missed :(    The competition worth $5000 i.e. equivalent to 2.5 lakhs INR.

It might appear very simple and easy but it took Dharmalingam Udaya Kumar more than just an enormous research, the attitude of which he has received over time at IIT Mumbai.
The first look of the design for the Indian rupee as an international symbol gives us the experience of Indian Devnagri script and has proved again to us that cultural values can take anyone to great heights of success. The earlier milestone of success with such similarity was the "Jai Ho" song sequence that made A R Rahman the first Indian Academy award winner- Best Original song!
Further looking into the details of his efforts I found out that there is a difference between solitude and loneliness. The latter is obvious to any common man however, the former is a situation where one is blessed with good time to test, experiment and equip oneself with all the possible exquisite knowledge. Therefore all may agree to this thought that "Solitude provides a man enough opportunity to become the beholder of the Power of Knowledge". This may be supported by the fact that in order to know the world better, it is not necessary to take a voyage of earth, instead one may know much more, comparatively in much less time and at phenomenally lesser cost by engaging oneself in voracious reading.
Coming back to Udaya, we can all analyse that his efforts and India as an emerging economic superpower, both have received an international recognition and acclaim from all parts of the world...
May India prosper with the team of such efficient and vital change elements.
Amen !
