I was ragged, but i was happy!

KAMLESH RATHOR

It's about ragging! It's not always bad. During my MBA, my seniors gave me a project in order to tease me. I was asked to go to a magazine store and make a list of 50 Adult Magazines.

They were unaware of the fact that i am a avid magazine reader. I have been reading 5-6 news magazines every week, from last 12 years. Since i was new in town, i was looking for some book shop. Unlike my hometown Patna where you will find a roadside magazine stall in almost every "gali", i was surprised that here i could find so many restaurants, but hardly any book stall. So, this project actually gave me a kick. I asked for information from local class mates. They told me about the book stall near IIM, Vastrapur. I went to the shop. Though there were few such magazines, the vendor was able to guide me in making a long list. Finally, my seniors were surprised and happy.

Today, if you will go to new IIM campus, just on the left hand side of the entry gate, you will find a Magazine store. The owner is  Kamlesh Rathor who is quite educated and has completed ITI.
