Inspiring story of a blind Indian MBA

 

     Next

Years ago as an NMIMS Mumbai student, during placements a corporate house told Ashish Goyal to find himself a job in the government sector, since it has a quota system for the physically challenged. Having turned blind in his teens because of an eye condition called retinitis pigmentosa, Ashish did not take the advice lightly.
He not only got himself placed at ING Vysya but also stood second in his batch at NMIMS. Later, Ashish went on to do an MBA from the Wharton School, University of Pennsylvania, Philadelphia.
Today, the Mumbai boy has a plum job at JP Morgan's London operations.
Over the years, Ashish has not only earned milestones in his professional space but also done plenty in his personal life -- from learning to play Brazilian drums and learning the Argentine tango to boxing and performing on stage, besides many other things.

Get Ahead read Nisha Agrawal, a software engineer from Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, in response to our reader invite (below) sent us this snippety review of the best smartphones India saw in 2010.
With the 3G roll out just around the corner, it's the perfect time to run through some of the top tier smartphones currently available in the market.
2010 has been witness to a splash of smartphones, from polished packaging to sheer power packed diversity, and the honest truth is -- ssmartphones have never been this good.
Though there is something I like about each and every phone out there, there is a handful that I think are simply amazing.
What follows is a list of my preferred smartphones of the year, come on, let's get cracking.

iPhone 4

It isn't news no more that in the world of smartphones, there's Apple and then there is everybody else. This statement holds quite true as the iPhone provides the most smooth user experience for a smart phone, mainly due to the fact that everything on and inside the iPhone is created, written by Apple.
Their latest offering, the iPhone 4 is one super sleek gadget -- with features like a super-fast A4 CPU, a new front-facing camera and five megapixel shooter on the back, a completely new industrial design, and that outrageous Retina Display.
IOS4 attempts to fill the missing gaps in iPhone 3G S and I must say it does that quite successfully with loads of new features, most notably multitasking -- as Apple calls it, a video calling feature dubbed FaceTime, folders to organise apps, enhanced Mail and the popular iMovie app especially for the iPhone 4.
A definite pick for the Apple diehards and those looking to experience super graphics and an even better smartphone experience, it comes in two sizes, 16GB and 32GB.
Full list of iPhone 4 features and other details can be found here (http://store.apple.com/us/browse/home/shop_iphone/family/iphone).
