Their success and struggles have inspired and motivated me,” he explained. <br /><br />For Raj Kishan Prasad, a first-year PGDM student, meeting people from the corporate world was an eye-opener. “We got to interact with a lot of people and taking part in events like ‘best manager’ helped us hone our skills. It was a good learning opportunity,” he added. <br /><br />There wasn’t a dull moment during the day and the students welcomed the break from academics. <br /><br />“It was a fun-filled day with a number of exciting competitions planned out for us. The belly-dancing and silent skit had to be the highlights of the day. The day was simply brilliant,” gushed Aradhana Bali. <br /><br />Sharing the same excitement, Shalini Swain, a student, said, “It was a lot of fun. At least it was a change from our daily routine.” <br /><br />Varun Vashisht, another student, said the prizes for the competition motivated him to participate.<br /><br /> “We took part enthusiastically with the intention of winning,” he explained.<br /></p>
