– honorary secretary, gymnasium,
Aerobics and fitness Association

nutritional value of food. He gave
the calorie chart showing which
food contains how many calories.
He advised not to eat fast food as
it is calorie rich food. Instead he
advised to take nutritious rich
food. He also added that exercise
is equally important for
absorption of this food and
reducing obesity.
Lastly he gave daily diet chart
to the children which emphasized
on what to eat and what not to
eat. Right from their wake up

GLIMPSES OF THE INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE
APRIL 2014
6-7
THE 49TH NATIONAL AND 18TH INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE OF APPLIED PSYCHOLOGY (IAAP) HOSTED BY SMT. L & C MEHTA ARTS COLLEGE, GLS AS A PART OF ITS
DIAMOND JUBILEE CELEBRATIONS. THE THEME OF THE CONFERENCE WAS “PSYCHOLOGY FOR HOLISITIC LIVING IN THE GLOBAL WORLD”.
T
he 49th National and 18th International Conference of Indian
Academy of Applied Psychology (IAAP) from March 1 to 3,
2014 organized by Smt L & C Mehta Arts College , was a great
success as gauged by the number of people in attendance and the
enthusiasm of the conference. The theme of the conference “Psychology
for Holistic Living in Global World” focused on several important
premises like Career Preference of Adolescents, Role of Yoga for
Emotional Wellbeing, Spirituality and Psychological Wellbeing, etc.
The conference provided a perfect opportunity for anyone interested in
learning about the various components of psychology and how it is
changing the lives of individuals, communities, and institutions
around the globe.
Pre-Conference Workshop, Symposium, Special Guest Lectures,
Workshop, Presentations, and Poster Sessions featured leading-edge
research, as well as applications of psychology in a variety of fields.
Attendees had the opportunity to discuss the latest research, insights,
and ideas, and interact with other people who focus on studying what
is best in life and how to create more of it. This conference provided a
valuable opportunity for psychology professionals from different cultural backgrounds and diverse fields to explore the global impact of
psychology as a field of practice on community and individual mental
health care.
The scientific sessions conducted confirm how the conference was
as focussed as it was diverse. All paper presenters were clear in their
desire to effect positive change for individuals and there were many
views about how this might be done. While there are no magic solutions, the coming together, the discussion, and the collaboration that
permeated this conference were certainly a source of hope and optimism about the future of helpful and effective services to human racea holistic approach.
The picture gallery speaks on its own; yet it fails to really recognize the excitement and meaning surrounding the conference.

T
he Sunset Club is yet
another frank and honest
offering from Khushwant
Singh, a tale of life-lived and
loved at one’s own terms. It is
the tale of three members of the
Sunset Club, namely Pandit
Preetam Sharma, Sardar Boota
Singh, and Nawab Barkatullah
Baig. The trio have been a part
of Sunset Club and friends for
more than four decades. They
are now above 80 years of age
and gather at the sunset, sit
together on a burra binch facing
the monument in the Lodhi
Gardens. They exchange
pleasantries and conversations
talking about various topics.
The book is beautifully
organized into thirteen chapters;
with each of the twelve months
of the year having a chapter to
itself. Set in picturesque Delhi,
the novel traces the life of three
octogenarians starting from
Ganatantra Divas 2009 to
Ganatantra
Divas
2010.
Khushwant Singh portrays all
his characters vibrant in life,
takes the readers through the
happenings of the country in
general ; describes the 12
months of the year (all twelve
months are portrayed with their
distinctive nature), Delhi with
all its poetic uniqueness. The
flow of stories between the
Pandit, the Nawab and the
Sardar beautifully evokes the
many moods of Delhi in
different
seasons
during
different phases of each
protagonist’s life.
The Sunset Club is a
telling commentary on an
ever changing India seen
through the eyes of the elderly.
The book is also a touching
though bold to celebrate the
experiences of being human;
of the frailties of old age and
lot many more things. Each
protagonist is fleshed out with
minute and sensitive detailing
in terms of their appearance
as well as their ideological
standpoints. All the three
character take the reader on a
rollercoaster ride filled with
laughter and silence as the

expose of faith and doubt,
pathos and merriment. The
narrative technique used
provides a bare critique of the
society.
Khushwant Singh etches
out the emotional states and
physical realities of the three
friends in tones that range
from the lyrical to the crass
given the very different
personalities of each character.
Singh’s depiction of the
changes in Delhi, especially
his portrait of the seasons
with detailed observations of
the weather, flora and fauna is
a poetic highpoint of the text.
The plot is spare and simply
told, yet rich with metaphors
and insights into our own
selves, I can only sum this
book up in one line : What it
stands for is a life, and how
that life has been lived.

Train to
Pakistan
T
he film is set in
Mano Majra which
is a silent village on
the border of India and
Pakistan, close to where
the railway line crosses the
Sutlej River. The film
develops around the love
affair of small-time dacoit
Jagga (Nirmal Pandey),
with a local Muslim girl,
Nooran (Smriti Mishra).
Mano Majra incidentally
was the original title of the
book upon its release in
1956. The villagers are a
mix of Sikhs and Muslims,
who live in harmony. The
Sikhs own most of the
land, and the Muslims
work as labourers. During
the summer of 1947, when
the Partition of India was
taking place, the entire
country was a hotbed for
extremism and intolerance.
The Muslims in India
moved towards the newly
formed Pakistan, and the
Hindus and Sikhs in
Pakistan migrated to
refugee camps in India.
One day, a train arrives
from Pakistan, which
carries bodies of all the
travellers who have been
butchered while they tried
to depart from Pakistan.
That is when this quiet
village is changed forever.
The film was one of
most
anticipated
adaptations of its time,
especially being writer
Khushwant Singh’s most
acclaimed work.
The film was produced
by Channel Four Film and
(NFDC), and Production
Company
was
K a l e i d o s c o p e
Entertainment.
The
shooting began nearly fifty
years after the actual
partition of India in 1947.
Though many villages of
Punjab resembled, the
Punjab of fifty years prior,
Muslim pockets were
missing now, hence a
couple of villages on the
fringes of Punjab were
used to give a combined
look of Mano Majra, the
village near the Indo-Pak
border, where the novel
was set. Pamela used her
background
in
documentary film making
to shoot certain parts of the
film live, in scenes like
that of religious ceremony
at a temple.
The film was released
in the United States, Sri
Lanka and in the UK, and
also shown in several
international film festivals,
including,
Zanzibar
International Film Festival,
1998, World Film Festival
National Films from South
Festival Denmark, 1998,
Beirut International Film
Festival, 1998, Fiminale
International Film Festival,
Konl Germany, 1998,
Soria Mora Film Festival,
Oslo, 1998, and Indian
Film Week in Hong Kong,
2000. Besides critical
acclaim, it was also
nominated for Best Film at
the 1999 Cinequest Film
Festival.

Pahel started with a dream
to do something for those kids
who are special in some way or
the other, but don’t get an
opportunity to prove. The
underprivileged

the
mentally challenged kids are
given an opportunity to display
their talents in music, dance and
allied areas.

ALLUMNI MEET AND CULFEST ‘TORNADO’
By Pooja Ajwani
t is truly said by Nikki
Giovanni, an American
writer, commentator, activist,
and educator : A lot of people
resist transition and therefore
never allow themselves to enjoy
who they are. Embrace the
change, no matter what it is;
once you do, you can learn about
the new world you’re in and take
advantage of it.
Keeping this thought in
mind, GLSICT organized a gettogether for their Alumni
students on 8th March, 2014.
This was just to provide a
platform where Alumni can
share their experiences of
exploring the new world with
other students. As the eve started
all alumni recalling their golden
time spent in this organization.
This feel was expressed by the
alumni student Mr. Mayank
Modi, Group Tech-Lead,
Argusoft India Ltd. He brought
back quite a lot of memories as
he thank faculties of GLSICT
for building up his career and
also help him in and every
respect as when he requires.
Followed by this another alumni
of GLSICT Mr. Anand Patel, Jr.
Software Engineer, Elitecore
Technologies Pvt. Ltd. He
guided as well as motivated his
juniors for building up their
career through exploration and
by grasping new opportunities.
To entertain and greet the
alumni, ANNUAL cultural
festival- CULFEST 2014 was
also organized by GLSICT.
Students of sem IV and sem II
took active participation in the
events like Fashion show,
Dance,Singing,
Skit
and
photography. The themes of the
Fashion show were “Colors of
India” in which different culture
of different states were shown
and the second one was “Women
Empowerment” in which how a
woman can contribute to the
external world was shown. An
artist removes all the hurdles
from his path, this was proved
by sem VI students who spared
their valuable time from Industry
and performed for their seniors.
This was followed by the
prize distribution ceremony and
thanks giving speech by the
alumni students as well as by the
faculty members. They also
appreciated performances given
by their juniors. Then they
enjoyed delicious dinner.
Last but not the least they

And may there be no sadness or farewell,
When I embark – Khushwant Singh celebrating death…
I
By Nirja Vasavada
t was around 3 pm in the
afternoon on 20th March
2014, when my facebook
notification beeped and I got a
message from my friend that
Khushwant Singh passed away.
The Khushwant Singh, whose
novels we studied as students
and whose stories we taught as
teachers. I gave the news in the
staff room, still staring at my
phone screen, and when I
looked up, I found one of my
staff members really upset.
Well, he was old. I tried to
justify Singh’s death. But when
I actually sat and thought about
it, I realized that this, indeed, is
a huge loss to not only
literature, but also to politics,
journalism and above all,
humanity. He certainly held a
peculiar place in Indian life as
a writer, journalist, lawyer and
a politician. He could be all
this, and still remain witty and
humorous. As one of the critics
wrote in his obituary to Singh
that ‘Singh will be telling jokes
in heaven now!’.
Singh was one of the few
people who experienced the
pre-partition and post partition
situations of both the countries.
His Train to Pakistan tells the
moving story of the journey
from one side of India to
another side of the then India.
His pen was certainly mightier
than the sword, as he very
clearly penned down his views
in his novels, stories or political
writings. As he says in Train to
Pakistan, “Freedom is for the
educated people who fought
for it. We were slaves of the
English, now we will be slaves
of the educated Indians—or the
Pakistanis.” or in his another
novel Delhi, he states, “I
realized that I belonged neither
to the Hindus nor to the
Mussalmans. How could I
explain to my wife that while
the Brahmins lived on offerings
made to their gods, the Rajputs
and the Jats had their lands,
Aheers and the Gujars their
cattle, the Banias their shops,
all that the poor Kayasthas had
were their brains and their reed
pens! And the only people who
could pay for their brains and
their pens were the rulers who
were Muslims!”
Many people have paid him
obituaries. But interestingly,
Singh himself had done so
some years back. In his book
‘The Absolute Khushwant: The
lowdown on Life, Death and
Inbetween’ Singh says – “ I
don’t fear death. What I dread
is the day I go blind or am
incapacitated because of old
age—that’s what I fear—I’d
rather die than live in that
condition.”. He was the person
who had written his epitaph
and the news item of his own
death long before he actually
died! He was not prepared for
just death, he was prepared for
the ‘celebration of death’. He
quotes Tennyson in his essay
How to Live and Die,
Sunset and evening star,
And one clear call for me
And may there be no
moaning of the bar,
When I put out to sea...
Twilight and evening bell,
And after that the dark!
And may there be no
sadness or farewell,
When I embark.”
Death came to him as he
wished – gently, peacefully, as
if fading away in slumber. But
he is not someone who can
fade away. There is certainly
no farewell, sir. You live
through your words, your
books and you live in our
hearts.
