HIS BOOK ‘MALL WATCH” WAS RELEASED BY MR D. R. CHAUDHARY
Chandigarh Management Association (CMA) organised an interactive

perspective & in sight" with Mr. Rajbir Deswal, IPS, IG Police (CID)-
Haryana. On this occasion his book “The Mall Watch’- a collection of
Middles published in various national dailies was also released by Mr D.
R. Chaudhary Member, Haryana Administrative Reforms Commission.
Mr. Ranjiv Dalal DGP Haryana has written the Preface of ‘Mall Watch’.
While speaking on the topic ‘Value Framework in Administration” Mr.
Rajbir said it is important for the administrators and managers to revisit
the routine regulations when they get stressed with the existing ones.
Mr. Rajbir said that it is better for the administrators to be good and
polite for wider acceptance by the public. While addressing the
younger lot in the audience, he said that if you are not getting any
response from the administration, it is for you to see that how you
bring about changes while availing the opportunities which comes in
your way. Mr. Rajbir questioned the utility of bringing the
administrative and executive machinery to standstill when elections
are announced. That adversely affect the on-going development work
and in case opposition party comes into power, the ongoing works are
revisited and launched de novo.
Mr. Deswal regretted that in a democracy it is the numbers which
outweighs the ideas and the personal character of the candidates in
the elections; however, he added democracy is essential for the human
progress.
Mr. Deswal said that he is happy to see that now the corporate are
giving equal opportunities to both female and males while making
their recruitments. However, much has to be done to curb the menace
of sexual harassment at work places.
Mr. D.R.Chaudhary, while releasing the book had high appreciation of
Mr. Rajbir and said that as long as we have officers like him, the nation is
safe.
He regretted that the State of Haryana is still backward in many
aspects. Until and unless the age old customs are not given go by, it is
difficult to develop the state. For example, he said that the female
feticide is on the increas and the honour killings are another hurdle for
development. Even the most backward African countries have better
record in this direction, he added.

Balwant Gurunay

Chandigarh Management Association (CMA) organised a workshop on
“Mind Empowerment” skills at ITFT Education Group. Mr. Gurunay
Professional Corporate Motivator and Coach for attitudinal correction
and stress management. Conducted the workshop.
Gurney said that the human brain is a factory of chemicals. It is a pot of
electrochemical activity that affects us and our lives. Most of the time,
he said, we become victim of irrational ways of thinking and we turn to
selective abstraction, i.e. we see only the negatives but missing the
positive details of the situation. In his presentation he brought out this
truth in a simple manner and provided simple but effective tools to
balance this psychosomatic imbalance with some somatic as well as
psychological activities. Gurunay said in our everyday life the kind of
situations we meet like traffic jams, meeting deadlines to complete a
task, overload of work at hand, and modern life style interspersed
between computers, television serials, marital conflicts, social and
family responsibilities etc., are some of the causes for increase in the
stress level in our life. Gurunay said yoga and meditation are best
known tools to ward off stresses of modern day life.
Dr. Gulshan Sharma, CMA president, said that CMA has dedicated year
2010-11 towards Skills Development and have taken many initiatives in
this direction, as we all know that the current education system churns
out the students who are not immediately employable and require
skills up-gradation.
It is our endeavour to make every Corporate in and around Tricity to
rise to the occasion and recognize their Corporate Social Responsibility
towards enriching and enhancing the potential of youth to the fullest.
