Is Getting Screened In Really Tough At SSB?

screening ssb

People have been wondering what happens on the first day that so many aspirants get rejected and the majority of the lot is eliminated.

Yes accepted that the first day is really very crucial and the people who get selected on this day are only allowed to reveal their full potential but there are many things that one must keep in mind and ensure his selection at the screening round of SSB.

Lecturette Topics eBook SSBCrack

The myths that the aspirants are surrounded with are:

  • I spoke so many times in GD and yet I was rejected and the person who was just smiling was selected.
  • People who used Hindi got selected while I used really versed language and I was rejected.
  • I started the GD and spoke two to three times yet I am rejected.
  • My story narration was good and I performed descent in the GD yet I don’t understand why I am rejected.

I have been receiving these things in my mail as queries that generally bother the aspirants. Now let me make it very clear that first of all these myths need to be sorted and you should not believe in all these things. Another thing is that one needs to understand that screening GD is not similar to other GD that people usually give in placement activities.

The needs of all organizations are really different and one needs to accept that. Hence, different things are evaluated in different places. Thus, different exams require different preparation. If one goes with the same mindset, selection could be tough. So try to understand and work on your psychology and personality as these are the things that are evaluated on the first day.

At SSB things are judged psychologically where one needs to prove that he or she has the potential to become an officer and OLQs are being evaluated. So how to perform well?

  • Take things positively at SSB and do not go with pre-conceived notions. Every start should be a fresh start.
  • Introspect deeply before appearing for SSB as that can only save one from getting know-how about yourself and performing to the fullest there.
  • Remember not to fool anyone and prepare sincerely for your dream.
  • If you are looking for preparation, always see a place where you would be individually guided as SSB is all about an individual personality and if taught in large chunks one can miss important aspects. Also in such places, individualistic personality is lost.
  • Get ready with your profiles so that you know what you have and what needs to be improved on. Once this is done then the practice set can be taken and things will definitely move in the right direction.

Why Ajit Doval Is The Best NSA Chief India Could Ever Get

1
Intelligence Bureau (IB) AJIT DOVAL

When I first met him in his Lutyen’s Delhi office days after Rajiv Gandhi’s assassination in Sriperumbudur, Tamil Nadu, on 21 May, 1991, Ajit Doval was a Deputy Director of the Intelligence Bureau, in-charge of operations. The office building, an imposing white palatial property, still continues to be the operations hub for the IB, though I should refrain from giving its exact address for obvious security reasons.

As I sat opposite Doval, with a huge table between us, he noticed that I was taking stock of his room. He asked me: “Do you see anything odd here in this room?”

My unspoken reactions were naturally that of a perplexed young man whose mind had been completely read inside out by his host.

“Not really,” I sputtered, gingerly.

Doval puffed from a cigar (he is a chimney, when it comes to smoking!) and then said: “OK, I will tell you what it is.”

I leaned forward to the extent the obstructing table would allow as Doval took a deep breath. It was a signal, as I would know during my thousands of interactions with Doval all these years, that he was about to be unplugged.

“Have you noticed that there are no wires in this room?” Doval said. It was obvious that he was not asking me, but telling me.

And even before I could ask why, the real gems started coming from him. “Wires are a source of worry, the most obvious tools for our enemies who would do anything to bug or eavesdrop us. Without wires they can do nothing. That’s why this room is completely without any wires.”Intelligence Bureau (IB) AJIT DOVAL

Today it may sound a bit odd and out of place; not 23 years ago. Those were the Doordarshan times, the MTNL times, the DESU times (the last one, only a hardcore Delhiite like me would relate to). Those were the days when having a phone connection (landline, of course) itself used to be a status symbol.

But forget about the economic outlook of the nation at that time, this was my first lesson in counter-terrorism.

Now cut to 30 May, 2014, the day when Doval, a former chief of the Intelligence Bureau (IB), was appointed as National Security Advisor (NSA) to Prime Minister Narendra Modi. He retired as the IB chief in January 2005. Incidentally, though he is known to be close to the BJP and BJP patriarch LK Advani, he was appointed as the IB chief during the UPA 1.

Doval’s appointment should send jitters to Pakistan, particularly the likes of Dawood Ibrahim, Hafiz Saeed and Sayeed Salahuddin.

This crucial appointment may well be a sneak peek into Modi’s upcoming plans for Pakistan, particularly the terror apparatus that has been flourishing there for decades.

The Pakistanis are not dumb either and have already played their chess moves with regard to their strategic assets named above. That is why Dawood Ibrahim went underground immediately after Modi swept to power and days before he was sworn in as India’s 15th Prime Minister.

One can look forward to more Pakistan-centric news dominating the Indian media in the near future. No, this won’t be about the usual sugar-coated diplomatic charade. Most likely, it would pertain to the ‘breaking news’ category.

Well, how and why, I should not pre-judge or predict. But those who know something about the intelligence-craft would find my statement pregnant.

Most likely, Pakistani military establishment must be on the same page and must be aware of my hints.

Interestingly, Doval’s appointment preceded Jamait-ud-Dawa chief Hafiz Saeed, founder of India’s biggest blood-sucker Lashkar-e-Toiba, going ballistic hours before and declaring “jihad” against India in front of a crowd of about ten thousand people he led in the heart of Pakistan.

Saeed’s shenanigans have not gone unnoticed by Doval.

Having known Doval from close quarters for such a long time and having interacted closely with top intelligence honchos of India in the past quarter century, I can say one thing with a very high degree of confidence. Doval is the best NSA India could have ever got.

No, it is not because that he has been a hardcore operations man of the IB for decades. No, it is not because that as a master of disguises he melted into whichever theater he deployed in – the northeast or Punjab or Pakistan – he came up with astounding results.

Of course, all this is true. But that alone is not his USP.

Doval was the man who dared to sneak deep into Pakistan at the risk of his life and remained in that country incognito for years, delivering virtually real time intelligence on Pakistan’s Kahuta nuclear plant.

But then his capability is over and above all this. He is a shrewd man of action who thinks and a thinking man who acts. This is a deadly combination. He has the capability of thinking out of the box and planning daredevil operations with surgical precision.

This is what Modi needs from him. Inevitably, Pakistan would figure highest on Doval’s mind.

Here is a clue. One would do well to keep a watch on major India-baiters based in Pakistan – Dawood, Hafiz Saeed and Salahuddin.

Significantly, I understand that Doval will have a free hand in navigating India’s national security which has been moribund for years.

These are the interesting times. These are the action times. Or shall we say, these are the Ajit Doval times?

Story Of Maj DP Singh Story Will Motivate You

After completing my Cdo course with an injured knee in 1998, I was on leave to undergo knee surgery for ACL tear. In Mar 99, I joined unit and straight away went on PP6 in Munawar Tawi area of 10 Div. I was still under physiotherepy which I could never complete for the prescribed duration courtesy Op Vijay.

It started in the month of May and things got very hot in 10 Div area too. On the fatefull day of 15th July 99, I came under firing of mortar and got severely injured. Profusely bleeding all over the body when I reached hospital I was decelared dead by the surgical specialist. As the luck would have another doctor, Anesthetic, was present there at that moment, who had a look at me and could revive me.

Since then, till Nov 2009, it took me ten full years to regain my ability back for which I was famous among my coursmates in IMA as I use to be the first one to sleep in the outdoor classes and come back in first five, when sent on round the temple to sit and relax while others were still running.Story Of Maj DP Singh Story Will Motivate You

It all started with my craze of going for Rally sports. During my army days also I was passionate about rally sports but could never get chance to explore that area much as I was denied entry into such adventures owing to my medical condition. Once out, I began to explore it more, however as its an expensive sport, I needed money and sponsors. It was the hunt for sponsors which forced me to prove my worth as an individual first as whomsoever I met in this regard, frowned on me because of my physical status. During that period I came across the advertisment of Airtel Delhi Half Marathon to be happened in Nov 09 and I enrolled for it.maj dp singh

Month of oct in delhi is neither cold nor hot, in a way, ideal to get up early and go for jogging. First day, I donned the jogging suit and went out on road,started with a normal walk for about 2 kms. Long way to cover in next 14 days but there was some spirit, spirit of proving my worth again, spirit of doing something worth after a long. And thus every day I started getting up early and going for jog.

Within few days, I was able to hop run for about 4 to 5 kms. Sweating out like this after about 9 yrs was a feeling of elation. The max upto which I went during practise session was mere 9 kms. I wanted to do about 14 to 15 kms but in between there were various challenges like, coming back late from office and not able to complete the sleep to get up early, upset stomach or some other commitments in which I went out of delhi. Controling stomach was biggest challenge as due to injury twice my stomach underwent laprotomy in order to remove the intenstinal adhesion. But after consulting a doctor I had a medicine to ease out this trouble.

As I was not able to complete the mark of 14 km in practise so, I was not sure whether I should attempt the run or not, there was some element of confusion. But I guess its normal to have such doubt before any test because this only makes you give your best.

Though I had prepared myself by buying new jogging shoes which will give me better grip and cushion to my left foot, toe and heel but toe and heel had given me piercing pain many a times while practise session and intolerable pain while doing the frist marathon.

Early morning on the day of marathon, I got up at around 4, cleaned my bowl well and had my daily diet of (anjeer, kishmiss, khazoor and badaam) first thing in the morning. Mind was still confused whether to go for run or sleep again. For about five minutes I was confused, then suddenly I made up my mind to reach at starting point atleast before the half marathon starts and let things to happen on its own. That was perhaps the moment of Rubicon, because after that not going ahead with run never struck me. I reached there on venue and wore my chest number. Public was amazed to see a one leg guy getting ready but that was giving me strenght rather. While I was standing next to gate in the holding area, I met a 75 yrs old guy with his friend. He was an athlete of his times and was there to run half marathon. I touched his feet and he wished me good luck for the run. That was the moment when even the iota of doubt I had at the back of mind also got washed away.

And rest is history now, since 2009, I have completed three consecutive half marthons at Delhi and Mumbai both. Amazingly, improving time by 15 min in every run. My present prosthesis has over lived its life of 5 yrs by more the double and its giving me trouble since last 3 yrs but some how I could manage my runs without getting bogged down by even this restraint. I am now trying to get a new prosthesis specially designed for running purpose with an aim to explore marathons outside India too. The fact that Limca book of records has published my attempt as maiden attempt in India and thus a record has given me a further push to take it forward.

LECTURETTE – Women Empowerment

1
LECTURATE-WOMEN-EMPOWERMENT

India is a nation where women are equalized with the goddess. According to the Vedas, they are the base of the human race. A woman plays an important role in maintaining an entire family and sometimes the whole nation (former President Pratibha Patil). They have proved themselves in almost all fields and sectors. But their further empowerment is a matter of concern for the nation. Previous steps taken by government have strong impact on the situation. But the conditions are still worst in some areas, like safety of women is big point of concern for the government. India’s much praised tourism field that contributes in nation’s GDP has been affected a lot because of the unsafe environment for women India.

What does it mean?

The term women empowerment means an overall improvement of women. Here the term ‘overall’ means human rights, legal and education rights of women along with social enhancement of women. A completely safe and protected environment for women is a necessity of the country. The sense of Freedom is also a part of empowering the women.

Current status of Women

Acid attacks, rape, molestation, kidnapping and several other crimes have filled columns of newspapers. Several cases of the horrific attempt of rape and acid attacks have shivered the nation. Even molestation cases have also been flooded the media. Article 39D makes it mandatory for payment of equal money for same work done by any woman. Dowry Prohibition Act, Protection of Women from Domestic Violence Act, Sexual Harassment of Women at workplace Act are the laws framed by the government to safeguard the women in India. According to a study, it is revealed that women are easily trainable and are catchier than men. 1/3 seats of panchayat are reserved for women and 33% of seats of Lok Sabha and Legislative Assembly are reserved for women.LECTURATE-WOMEN-EMPOWERMENT

Steps were taken to improve the status

Well, according to the current scenario more tough rules and laws are required for overcoming the crimes and more broad schemes and plans can power up the women in this nation. Several loopholes in law make the prosecution more complicated. Recently launched schemes like Beti Bachao Beti Padhao, Bhagyashri Yojna and some other were launched widening the gate for women in the social involvement. Another challenge for India is to make the women population a part of development. Women have proved several good results (Arundhati Batachrya, Indra Gandhi, etc). Not only this, our cultural and traditional values also made some complication in the task. These need to be changed a bit to release women form the traps.

Conclusion

“We all cannot succeed if half of us are held back” the golden words by Malala Yousafzai, describes the reality of the world. The place of women in the country need some focus and attention from government. The situation has changed a lot, many amendments and new laws have enhanced the condition. Some more steps in this area are required to make India a safe place for women. The development of the nation is only possible when communal efforts will be made.

Inner Line Permit – Biasing or Not

Inner Line Permit – Biasing or Not

The north eastern states of India usually stay in media for different causes. Most of the time the reason is related to the security and defense (military). But some other issues also create uproars in the area. These days Manipur is sharing the headlines for the imposed curfew and people protesting for the implementation of inner line permit in the state. The protest is most intensified in the Imphal district (consisting east and west division). The death of the student acted as adding gasoline to the fire and increased the demonstration and people’s involvement in the protest. This topic is crucial for SSB and can be asked in interview to check your knowledge of current affairs.

What is Inner Line Permit?

The term “Inner Line Permit” clearly defines its meaning. It divides the population of protected area of India into two groups, residential and outsiders. The system was introduced in 1873 during the British rule imposed in eastern provinces. The system results a mandatory permit which all outsiders have to get before visiting that state.

What People Want?

The people of Manipur want inner line permit to be implemented in their state. The move will make it compulsory of the non-domicile people in visiting the area to have a permit before entering the state. Currently Arunachal Pradesh, Mizoram and Nagaland are the states where this system is under rule. There special travel documents are required for visiting. Meghalaya is also demanding for it and some news also indicated the demand of its implementation in entire north eastern area. The system will safeguard the minority tribal population from the outside settlers.Inner Line Permit – Biasing or Not

Why Recently in News?

The issue is making place in media when a class 12th student was died when a tear gas shell hit him on his face (shot from close range) during the demonstration going on for the implementation of inner line permit on 8th July. Sources alleged that the crowd being violent leading the death of the student. This incident created more impact on the issue and these days several people were seen mourning for the student and youth were seen demonstrating even after the curfew was imposed in the area for overcoming the situation. The curfew was loosed on Sunday for some hours to allow people to buy commodities. The situation is becoming critical in the affected area as the people were still demonstrating avoiding the curfew imposed for indefinite period.

Conclusion

North eastern states of India are the crucial part of India and plays significant role in economy. Well, it also pays the most significant role in security and defense sector. The states have reported a lot of changes in recent times and are expected to show more. Well this thing depends on the way of governance along with people’s consent. Some odd elements like terrorism which resulted into ambush this year gathered more popularity to the states. Some states have shown better environment and were taken out of the AFSPA’s circumference.

Failures In Life Are Just Stepping Stones Of Success

Indian army soldiers

Experts say failure is an integral part of life. Life doesn’t seem to be moving if failure does not touch you. It is necessary to avoid life stagnation. But does life end there. Do we need to leave all things because of failure? Should we leave all hopes and leave dreaming. If we do not get success should be not try again. Failure is a simple part of life where we do not get the desired results. This is the simple definition where hope word is not there. We should not leave hope of winning, we should constantly desire for achieving our goals, dream badly seeing what we want to achieve then only it could be converted in reality.

Getting back to the right track after getting taste of failure just requires a bit of courage, because there will be people who will try to close all doors for you, but there will be few who will be constantly motivating you to move ahead and achieve our desired state. Failure is the best time for a person according to me because it gives the real picture of who are your closed ones, who are your real friends and who thinks good for you. Apart from all this you get to know about your flaws and could improve your personality. No one is perfect in this world. You have to constantly evolve from the difficulties and learn a lot. Learning is a constant process which begins when one is born. So what’s bad in getting failure? Simple welcome it in your life but remember to learn from what went wrong so that the same mistake is not replicated later in life. Learning from mistakes is a bit difficult, because the body flow of liquids is disturbed in this stage. What can save one from failure:

  • Positive thinking is the best friend that can save you from getting demotivated. Also, it helps in succeeding in life and is a special thing looked at SSB.
  • One should try to learn from the past mistakes so that the learning is intact and one does not repeat the same things around.
  • Self introspection is the exercise that can help you realise the real cause of failure as it can help in segregating the strength and weakness which helps to know the cause of failure. Once deep introspection is performed one can easily succeed in SSB.Indian army soldiers

We need to be controlling all this. Always have a habit of sharing things and thoughts with someone special, so that you have nothing left in your mind and heart. Eject the bad thoughts that house in your heart. You will feel light. Involve physical work and maintain your fitness. Still If you have any confusion or feel to take individual assessment of personality for olq’s or prepare from your place itself through one to one interaction through my mentoring / counselling program drop me a mail at [email protected] or add me on Fb and drop in a message. A perfect body is definitely a house for perfect heart and brain functioning. So get ready to fail and retard from it because failure is good. One needs to be developed perfectly and completely for getting selected in SSB, so start your journey now and keep reading!
