Raju: Thank you, sir.
Chairman: Mr. Revu, You did B.Tech from REC Warangal, ME from IISc,
Bangalore. But why did you do diploma?
Raju: Sir, After completion of my 10th class, based on my financial background,
my father joined me in polytechnic. After completion of polytechnic, we do get
jobs. Also, since I will get scholarship, the amount of money spent on me is
less.
Chairman: That means you will get job after diploma.
Raju: Yes Sir, I got a private job. Company is Cain energy limited.
Chairman: Then, why did you join B.Tech?
Raju: Sir, After completion of my diploma, I wrote ECET and I got state 1st
rank. So I convinced my father that I will join REC which is a premier
Engineering institute in our state.
Chairman: Then, you joined ME because your father insisted on that?
Raju: No Sir, It is based on my project guide ճ suggestion.
Sir, infact there are two streams to enter into B.Tech. One through EAMCET
after Intermediate and other is through ECET. After ECET...
Chairman: What question I have asked?
Raju: Sorry Sir, you have asked me why I joined ME after B.Tech.
Chairman: OK. Then stick on to the question.
Raju: Sir, I am explaining it.
Chairman: Be specific.
Raju: OK sir, during my final year I got all India rank 3 in Gate. My guide on
knowing this result suggested me to join IISc. He further told that this is the
golden opportunity for me. ԉf you miss it you will not get it again! ՠ he told
sir. Then, I informed about my career option as civil services. He then
convinced me by saying that I can write civil services after M.E. also.
Chairman: That means you are preparing for civil services while you are in
IISc?
Raju: I beg to differ with you sir. I started my preparation only after
completion of M.E.
Chairman: You have written that you joined Railways in September 2004. That
is of which exam?
Raju: Sir, This is based on IES-2003.
Chairman: That means you are in IISc.
Raju: Sir, I completed my second semester at that time.
Chairman: That means you have prepared for IES in IISc.
Raju: Sir, I have given IES in my own background i.e., Electrical Engineering.
Hence I need not prepare much for this exam. I just gave the exam.
Chairman: For how many years you are in Railways?
Raju: Sir, I joined Railways on September 2004. Then I took leave for 1 year,
i.e., leave on loss of pay.
