changing Motivational Programmes. With 400+ international clients including Oracle, TCS,
institutions like IIT Jodhpur, IIT Bombay etc. he himself has set an example for the youth that
“Age is just a number”. With the help of interesting activity like number of claps in a minute, he
addressed the biggest challenge of today’s youth that, “We often underestimate ourselves and
don’t realize that our only limit is our own selves.” His life mantra is “Converting the negativity
around into positivity”. With Learning, Regular Practice, Expertise in field and Earning – being
the 4 parameters of success, he conveyed that success comes to the one who strives for it.
Such encouraging and enlightening words of wisdom filled the room with insightful thoughts

Some teams were determined to buy certain player whatever the price may be, so they kept
raising the board and kept bumping up the price until nobody could compete with them. At the
end, when no other team was ready to raise the price, the player was sold to the highest bidding
team. It went on like that for quite a while. After one and a half hour, anchor gave a small break
of 5 minutes to all the teams so they can relax from bidding, freshen up and plan for the rest of
the players. After break, thrilling bid-wars started again. As the number of remaining players
were decreasing, the excitement and thrill was increasing. Some teams were very close to
winning and only a few players were remaining.
Also, the virtual money left with teams were also low at this point, so players were being sold
for low price. After the exciting auctioning of 165 players, the anchor announced that the round
had been over and gave 5 minutes to relax as the calculation for winner was going on.

HYDRAULIC ARM
Hydraulic Arm, held under GTU Central Techfest’19 hosted by Vishwakarma Government
Engineering College, was one of the technical events which embraced the creativity of the
growing engineers. In this gusty event, participants had to prepare “Hydraulic Arm” by
themselves which should be capable of lifting weight and move objects from one place to
another. Number of students allowed in a team was 1 to 3. The event was in three stages. After
completion of each stage, point was given according to the rules. In round one there were 5 cups
and 5 balls numbered 1-5 respectively, participants had to place each ball using their hydraulic
arm to its numbered cup. And hence after balls, cups had to be placed on its respective numbered
platform. Round 2 was all about creating a structure of cups using hydraulic arm such that each
row of cups contains one a smaller number of cups than its preceding row. Followed by third
stage, participants had to lift objects with different weights with increasing so on. About 81
registrations were undertaken from which winners were:
