I am extremely happy to be amidst you today. I am honoured to address the audience during the 28th convocation of this premier institute. Indeed, this is a day of pride for the graduating students, their parents, and the faculty members.

The Convocation is an important milestone in the educational journey of the student community. As put by our Prime Minister Mr. Narendra Modi, “This is not the end of your learning; rather you are now going from a closed and protected class room to an open class room. It is time for each one of you to realise whether you have acquired the most essential attributes such as dedication, discipline, and determination during the course of your study here without which life will not be complete”.

“You are the hope of the future!” This is not my statement. Mahatma Gandhi said, “You are the hope of the future. You will be called upon when you are discharged from your college to enter into public life to lead the poor people of this country”. Today there are clear signs of upsurge in the youth power. We witnessed the power of youth during the recent Chennai floods. The sincerity, dedication, presence of mind, determination, and courage shown by the youth during flood relief operation was amazing; it was observed and well-appreciated by the world community.

graduation day addrEssBut remember flood is a natural calamity which occurs only once in a way. But there are many dangerous man-made calamites around us. The widespread corruption in public life and the rise of honour-killings (81 honour-killings in just 3 years in Tamil Nadu) are a shame to any civilised society. The rising crime rate against women is another example. The youth, especially young women, should bravely fight against these evils to save the future of this country. Any positive social change can happen only through the medium of empowered women.

Women have been subjugated in the past and subjected to a lot of miseries starting from Sati to present day domestic violence not because of her weak physique but because of lack of emotional intelligence. An empowered woman is superior to an educated woman. She is not ignorant and not a slave to her own emotions. She is wise, emotionally intelligent, confident, and courageous to meet the challenges in life.

I am very happy to learn that the vision of your college is to empower women through education, ethics, and economic development. The college has provided the right academic atmosphere, the best knowledge resources, and the opportunity to develop knowledge-related and employability skills besides inculcating values rooted in our culture and tradition, secularism and humanitarianism.

The innovative programmes like Supplementary Training and Enrichment of Personality (STEP-UP), Institutional Social Responsibility (ISR), Spoken English Tutorials, and Academy for Development of English and Personality Traits (ADEPT) will go a long way in the empowerment of women. I wish you all a great future. I am really thankful for having given me this great opportunity. Thank you!

Teaching of Foreign languages, especially French, has become significant in the context of increasing globalization and internationalization of Higher Education. Acquiring basic skills in foreign languages has become more of a necessity than a pastime, and it certainly adds a special dimension to a student in

the job market. The Department of French has been functioning efficiently in exposing the students to the French language, music, and culture. It strives hard to improve the oratorical and writing skills of the students. It has also produced University Ranks. The Department hopes to continue its successful work in the years to come.

Respected Managing Trustee & Correspondent, Beloved Principal, Vice- Principal, Dean, Staff, and Dear Students! A very good evening to all of you!

As I am assigned with the task of sharing a few thoughts on this memorable occasion, I stand before you to present heartwarming thoughts and bid you farewell. After the completion of three wonderful years in this college, it is time now to bid farewell to each other with a heavy heart, wishing everyone a great life ahead.

Students become the subject of teachers’ action, target of teachers’ thought, and compliment of teachers’ endeavor. What we did, whether good or bad, was the process to shape you all for the future and make you a good human being for the country.

It is time now to stop to think about our priorities. First recognise the essentials that must be done now. These are important, though ordinary jobs, vital to one’s own well-being and the smooth run of life. Hence distinguish what is essential and should be done immediately from what you would like to do sometime in the future.

Do only one thing at a time. Do not squeeze too much into a short period of time.

Do as much as you can in the time at your disposal.

Organise yourself with a definite aim in view.

If you select your priorities, plan your day and make it your policy to do only one thing at a time. You will retain your zest for life your energy and your vitality.

This is the way to keep life under control and be on the top of the world instead of being harassed, worried, and inadequate.

Happiness is the gift of God. The reason so many people fail to find happiness is that they do not know where to look for it. They think that they will find it in wealth, social position, thrilling types of pleasures, but all these things never make anyone happy, for the simple reason that happiness is in our heart.

Like a bee gathering honey from different flowers, a wise person accepts the essence of life and sees only the good things in the world. Here are certain principles for your life; take them as if they are addressed to each and every one of you.

• Start your day with a prayer. Surrender each day to God; that trust in God will protect you from all the dangers.

• Set a goal for your life. Never allow your mind to divert; only then you can strive to achieve your set goal.

• Lead a well-organized life. Take up the responsibilities entrusted on you seriously; give proper accountability.

• Always try to be punctual. Never make others wait for you, but you can wait. This in turn will make others respect you.

• Try to be honest because it is the best policy. Being honest you may not be worldly wise, but you will always have the inner happiness and contentment.

• Whatever good things you do, do it without any expectation. All your obligations you try to fulfill not expecting reward but for your fullest satisfaction. All your good work will be recognised by God who will reward you in abundance.

• Be careful in choosing a friend or neighbor. Being careless may ruin your life; on the contrary, a good companion will take you to greater heights.

• At the end of the day, try to recollect all that you have done, thank God, and remember with gratitude people for all the good things they have given you.

• Most importantly, never forget your parents for they brought you into this world, enjoyed each and every stage of yours, and found happiness in their sacrifice for your sake.

• Remember your teachers for they are the potters who moulded you. Finally remember your Alma Mater for it is from here you carry all wonderful memories.

For turning all your setbacks into success, face the challenges. Try not to become a person of success alone but to become a person of values. As you embark upon a new path, let me wish you moments of happiness, success, and achievements. May in each moment you live your dream!

On behalf of all of us, I wish and pray that heaven’s choicest blessings be showered on you all now and forever.

Good Bye and Good Luck!!Mrs. Mercy Silvester,

Head & Associate Professor,Dept. of Commerce (Corporate Secretaryship)

art oF thE grEat!

Mismatched colours everywhere, Nothing seems perfect here.

Constellation of the stars Looks like a puzzle to be solved!

Unshaped stones on the land Waiting to be carved grand!

Melting candles imperfect Serving their purpose right!

Nature’s music high and low Gives peace to mind slow!

Light and dark turbid Shows vision that is splendid!

Confusing patterns of the nerves Pumping fuel of life it serves!

Tall or short never mind Grass that spreads gentle and kind!

Mundane becomes heavenly Perfection in imperfection - art of the great!

a. SnehaIII B.A (English)

wow! amazing!Today, I see people worried, Because of the troubles ahead;But I wonder why they feel scared!Because when I see the nature, the birds in the air, I take a moment and think “Wow! Amazing…”

I also have walked down the road of pain,Now that I think of it, it was not in vain;Because my Creator was there calling my name,So now I look at life and feel, “Wow! Amazing...”

Life has its ups and downs,It matters how we perceive them.Some may laugh and some may cry,It all comes down, to the ones who fight,In all you go through just trust and praySo that later you look at life and say, “Wow! Amaz-ing…”

If you need a reason to trust and believe

Just look around you and then you’ll seeThat life is not all about sadness and painIt’s just full of memories which will soon make you say, “Wow! Amazing…”

No matter what you are going through;It’s never too late, so just reach outTo the ones that are bitter, towards what they faceSo just help them see life and say, “Wow! Amazing...”

Although these words may sound easy to sayDon’t ever lose hope and go astray,Keep holding on to God, our Creator who saves;So trust in Him and fight the good fight of faith,Towards the end of your life,Smile and say to the next generation about life, “Wow! Amazing...”

BlutiFul BlutastiC BluE

If someone asks me “What is your favourite color?” I will definitely say BLUE because BLUE is

B – Beautiful

L – Luxurious

U – Unique

E – Elegant

Many people all around the world like the colour BLUE. As far as I know, 80% of the population likes BLUE. Even some animals like BLUE. I refer to them, those who like BLUE as my BLUE family. It is a beautiful colour because it is very pleasing to the senses, and it is of a very high standard. It makes the person who is wearing a blue dress beautiful. So it is a ‘Beautiful’ color.

Usually when we hear the word ‘luxury’, the first thing that comes to our mind is a big palace with a swimming pool or big cars. Nowadays 75% of cars and palaces are painted BLUE. Have you ever seen the surface of the swimming pool coloured in red or green or in some other colour? No, it is always coloured in BLUE, because it is a comfortable and ‘Luxurious’ colour.

BLUE is a unique colour because it stands out from

150


the other colours. A BLUE screen or a house painted in BLUE stands out from the other houses making it so ‘Unique’.

BLUE is really very attractive and very stylish. We would have seen in weddings that the serial lights are BLUE, mostly BLUE, because BLUE is so stylish. In shops, the lights inside the window display are usually BLUE. Normally BLUE dresses are kept in display, because BLUE is very attractive. So BLUE is an ‘Elegant’ colour.

On the whole, BLUE is a beautiful colour, a luxurious colour, a unique colour and an elegant colour. There are no words to express how amazing and awesome BLUE is, because it is BLUUUUUUUUE.

inky pinkyI was writing my First Mid-Term Test. That was the first time I was allowed to use an ink pen. I finished writing the answers fast. But the sheets were filled with ink-spots. I tried to clear the spots with a rubber. I found more ink than letters on my answer sheets. I had to tie the thread. I used the nib of the ink pen to pierce the sheet. I made a hole so big that quarter of my answer sheet was torn. Having no other go, I made a hole in the centre-top and tied the papers. My strict teacher started laughing and didn’t stop for five min-utes.

who am i?

• Everybody in the world generously gives me, but does not take me back. Who am I?

• I have all the knowledge you want. But I am not an encyclopedia. I am smaller than your fist. But I do ‘bigger’ things like rift and drift. Who am I?

• When you don’t know me, then I am definitely ‘something’ for you. You will break your brain to search for me. But when you know me, I become ‘nothing’. Who am I?

horror! horror!Due to heavy flood, there was no power supply for al-most ten days. My sister and I were applying mehendi in the candle light. Suddenly my sister shouted ‘Ghost! Ghost!’ She said that she saw something black in colour moving beside her. I casually said, “Keep quiet. It may be a black polythene cover.” She was not convinced, yet we started playing again. After a few minutes, the black figure jumped near us. Before we could breathe, it jumped onto the bed, ran into the shelves, and disappeared in the attic. My sis-ter screamed loudly, and mom came running to see us. Dad came with a torch and twisted my sister by the ears. As we were terror-struck, he showed a big black rat running out of its hole in the attic!

Nasreen FathimaI B.Sc. (Comp. Sci.)

I was sitting in the class room with my friends. English Sir was teaching a lesson. All of them became silent as he started telling a story. It was a horror story, and we were all listening very quietly. Suddenly he looked at me and said, “Hey, attack the blackkkyyy.” I was fright-ened and shocked. Everybody, except me, was laughing loudly. Only after a few minutes, I realised that because of fear I had climbed onto my friend’s lap and was holding her tightly.

INTRODUCTION

English language is no longer the exclusive property of speakers of English as mother tongue or first language. The ownership of English rests with the people who use it, multilingual or monolingual (Brumfit, 72). With the onset of globalisation and liberalisation, English language has gained renewed importance in many countries. It is taught as a Foreign Language (EFL), as a Second Language (ESL), or as English for Specific Purposes (ESP) throughout the world.

The necessity and importance of learning English as a second language has always been relevant in the Indian Scenario, yet the following issues make learning a big challenge:

English is taught as a subject and not as a language.

English syllabus is content-based and not skill-based.

Teachers are not aware of ESL teaching methodologies.

Classrooms are over-crowded with students of mixed abilities.

Most of the students are bilingual or multilingual.

‘Sarva Shiksha Abhiyan’ (Education for All) is one of the largest education initiatives in the world. ‘Samacheer Kalvi’ has been introduced in Tamilnadu to give equal education to all the students. Activity Based Learning (ABL) has been introduced in Chennai Corporation schools. In spite of all these efforts, India ranks second last among the 73 countries which participated in the Programme for International Student Assessment (PISA) organised by the OECD (Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development) Secretariat.

In the reading test, Tamilnadu and Himachal Pradesh students (who participated in the PISA as representatives of the Indian Education System) scored better than only Kyrgyzstan. Their proficiency in reading literacy is estimated to be below the baseline level (Chhapia, 2012). Language acquisition at primary level remains an ever-challenging task in India.

The need for learning English has become crucial in the 21st century, so the pressure to learn this second language builds up on every student including the student with learning disability. The movie Taare Zameen Par (2007) directed by Aamir Khan focused on Learning Disability (LD), especially the language learning disability Dyslexia, and created awareness about various learning disorders inherent in young children. The name ‘Dyslexia’ has been recognised as more appropriate in the medical milieu, whereas ‘specific learning difficulty’ is claimed to be more typical and frequently used by educators (Riddick, 653).

“Language Disability should not be confused with learning problems which are primarily the result of visual, hearing, or motor handicaps. It is often referred to as ‘hidden disabilities’. The person looks ‘normal’ and seems to be a very correct and intelligent person, yet may not be able to demonstrate the skill level expected from someone of a similar age” (LDA America). According to National Joint Committee on Learning Disability (NJCLD), LD can be defined as “anyone of a heterogeneous set of learning problems that affect the acquisition and use of listening, speaking, writing, reading, mathematical and reasoning skills” (Vimson, 212). The range of the problems faced by the LD students widens from the student’s disability to read a word to the disability to recognise a letter in the language (mother tongue or second language). Many ELT specialists and linguists are doing research to find ways to teach the Language Learning Impaired learners.

In the academic field, limited research has been done on the ways or approaches to teach a second language learner who faces such difficulty. Orton Gillingham came up with Multi-Sensory Learning (MSL) for the Language Learning Impaired (LLI) students. MSL seems to be quite successful as it includes all the motor skills together to teach and to learn a language (Hecker, 2006). Many remedial courses have been adapted from this and also been researched in foreign

153


nations. This thesis is an attempt to identify the difficulties faced by the students especially in learning the second language at the primary level in India.

Objectives of The StudyThe objectives of the study are

• to identify whether grade one students have phonemic awareness and are good in spellings, reading, pattern-drawing, colour identification, rhyming words, copy-practice, legible handwriting, puzzle-solving, etc.

• to analyse whether the social or economic background of the students affect second language learning at primary level

• to find whether students in English medium schools perform better than the students in Tamil medium schools

• to compare the teaching / learning methods used in English medium and Tamil medium schools

• to find out whether normal classrooms contain Language Learning Impaired students or students with any specific Learning Disability

• to analyse whether the selected Language Learning Impaired students find mother tongue learning easier than second language learning

• to check the general awareness of the teachers about the students with Learning Disability in their classrooms

Location of The Study

The location of the study is North Chennai. 4 English medium schools and 4 Tamil medium schools from the northern part of Chennai, Tamilnadu, India, are chosen as the location of the study.

Samples For The Study

Grade 1 students of the following schools are selected as samples for the study:

4 English medium schools:

• St. Mary’s Matriculation Higher Secondary School, Red Hills, Chennai

• St. Mary’s Boys’ Higher Secondary School, Perambur, Chennai

• St. Mary’s Girls’ Higher Secondary School, Perambur, Chennai

St.Mary’s Primary and Nursery School, Kodungaiyur, Chennai

4 Tamil Medium Schools:

• Government Higher Secondary School, Sharma Nagar

• Government Higher Secondary School, Maduma Nagar

• Government Higher Secondary School, Kodungaiyur

• Government Higher Secondary School, Vyasarpadi

Methodology

Test Questionnaire for Students

Test questionnaires are prepared and distributed to the first grade students of the selected eight schools. The questionnaire is prepared in such a way that it will test all the four skills of the learner in the second language.

Using the oral test, the researcher will try to study the phonemic awareness among the first grade students in both English and Tamil medium schools by finding out whether they are able to produce English sounds correctly, recognise letters and words, and are able to read unfamiliar words.

The written test tries to find out whether the students are able to identify English letters correctly, write words when dictated, copy down sentences neatly, etc. This is to identify the spelling patterns and other graphical problems faced by the students at primary level. The test questionnaire will also help the researcher to learn the practical problems faced by the students at primary level who learn English as second language. Tamil and Hindi questionnaires are used to find whether the language learning impaired students find first language or mother tongue learning easier than second language learning.

Questionnaire for Teachers

Questionnaire for teachers is designed to find the level of awareness among the teachers about the students with learning disability in their regular classrooms. It aims to find out the steps they take to help such students if they find any of them in their classrooms.

154


Reasons For Selecting The Methods

Test questionnaires are given to the first grade students as they cannot answer factual direct questions or interview questions. 10 questions in the test check the four skills and various sub-skills of the students. Teachers are given interview questions as their answers will give insight into their awareness about the symptoms and remedial measures for students with learning disability.

Steps Involved In The Method

Test questionnaires are distributed to all the second language learners. They are instructed to answer a few questions which test their listening, understanding, spelling patterns, copy-writing skills, etc. After that, the researcher speaks with every student individually and collects personal information. Oral test to check the students’ reading and speaking skills is conducted on one-to-one basis. The researcher evaluates the English test papers and identifies the students who may have language learning disability. The selected students are given Tamil or Hindi test questionnaires. Oral and written tests in mother tongue are conducted for every language learning impaired student. Questionnaires are given to the teachers who teach English as second language at primary level in the selected schools.

Tools Used In The Study

• Black board: Black board is used by the researcher for writing a few letters or words during the oral tests for the students.

• Pencil or pen: The students use pencil or pen to answer the questions in the written test.

• Crayons: This tool is specially used to identify the second language learner’s ability to identify the correct colour from the given colour name. This is also helpful to understand whether the student is able to colour the given pictures using correct colours.

• Questionnaires: This tool will be helpful to identify the students with specific learning disabilities and find out the general awareness of the language teachers.

Data Analysis & Findings

English, as a language, has become so prominent in countries like India that the need to learn and teach the language has become high. Every language learner is expected to excel in English even from Grade 1. Due to various factors, students at primary level struggle hard to acquire the second language.

Students with Language Learning Disability (LLD) or language learning impaired students are labelled as ‘slow learners’ and are being neglected in normal classrooms. They are given very few chances to learn the language in their own way. There are various language learning disorders like Dyslexia, Dysgraphia, Dyscalculia, Dyspraxia, Dysorthographia, Attention Deficit Disorder, Attention Deficit Hyperactive Disorder, etc. which affect the students’ learning process in tremendous ways. Dyslexia is a Specific Learning Disability (SpLD).

The researcher wanted to do a detailed study on the problems faced by a Dyslexic learner in a classroom. The researcher went to the following schools in search of samples for the study: Madras Dyslexic Association, Ananya Learning Center, Karunai Trust, Ashraya Therapy Centre, Dyslexia Remedial Classes, etc. Access was denied due to various reasons like confidentiality and sensitive parents. So the researcher moved on to search for samples in the normal schools.

The researcher chose 8 schools in North Chennai – 4 English medium schools and 4 Tamil medium schools. English medium schools contained students from urban and sub-urban areas. Tamil medium schools contained students only from sub-urban areas. Parents of English medium schools were mostly educated and employed. These students had enough support from parents in their studies. Parents of Tamil medium schools were mostly uneducated and underemployed. These students had no support from parents in their studies.

The researcher gave English questionnaire to Grade 1 students in the selected 8 schools. Students’ reading, writing, listening, and speaking skills were tested by the questionnaire and oral interview. Students who scored low marks in English test were given Tamil questionnaire. English and Tamil scores were compared to find whether the students found English or Tamil

155


difficult to learn. The selected students were analysed carefully to find out the difficulties faced by them in second language acquisition at the primary level.

The researcher found out that most of the students in Grade 1 have problems with phonemic awareness. They face difficulties in letter identification, reading simple words, identifying pictures, introducing themselves, pattern drawing, colour identification, rhyming words, copy-writing, legible handwriting, and solving word-puzzle.

Graph Showing The Difficulties In

Second Language Acquisition At The

Primary Level

From the data analysis, the researcher found out that social or economic background of the students influences second language acquisition to a great extent. Students in English medium schools performed better than the students in Tamil medium schools. There was no significant difference in the teaching or learning methods used in English medium and Tamil medium schools.

After careful analysis, the researcher found that not all of the students who faced problems with different aspects of second language learning were slow learners. Some of them were students with specific learning disorders such as Dyslexia, Dysgraphia, Dyscalculia, Dyspraxia, Dysorthographia, Attention Deficit Disorder, and Attention Deficit Hyperactive Disorder. This was confirmed through questionnaires and oral tests administered to the students.

The researcher also found that the selected schools were not equipped to handle these children with specific learning disorders.

In the 4 English medium schools, classrooms were overcrowded. There was no possibility of giving individual attention to the students. The teachers were paid by private management; they were more sincere and responsible than the teachers in Tamil medium

157


schools. However, there was little awareness among them about Language Learning Disability. Among the 4 schools, only one school had a teacher who was using clay as an alternative way to teach a student with language learning disability.

In the selected 4 Tamil medium schools, classrooms were not overcrowded. One of the teachers remarked that it was difficult to get strength in Tamil medium schools. In 2 schools, the teachers were very responsible. They displayed pictures and charts and used ‘oral drill method’ for language learning. They were supposed to use Activity Based Learning (ABL) method, but they used ‘oral method’ as they did not have sufficient activity cards for the students. They were not happy with the performance and results of ABL method. They remarked that ABL method was quite inconvenient as bright students finished fast and disturbed the slow learners, and it was difficult to maintain learning ladders and records. They also complained that it was difficult for them to teach both English and Tamil medium students who were mixed together due to space constraint. They encouraged bright students but humiliated slow learners. They were completely unaware of language learning disabilities in their students.

Other 2 Tamil medium schools had insincere teachers. The researcher found the students running around and playing as there were no teachers in the classroom. Many students scored less marks in English and Tamil tests. It was difficult to find whether it was because of students’ Language Learning Disability or teachers’ insincerity.

Many students spoke well in Tamil, but found it difficult to speak in English. Most of the students found it difficult to read and write both in English and Tamil. After a thorough study, the researcher came to the conclusion that every classroom contained 2 - 18 students with Language Learning Disability.

Interviews were also conducted to find out the awareness level and teaching strategies used by the teachers. Except a few teachers, many were unaware of Dyslexia or other specific learning disorders. They did not use any specific teaching strategy to improve the language skills of these students.

Recommendations

After conducting intensive research in 8 schools in and around Chennai, the researcher has given the following recommendations:

The Government has to take initiative to make the teachers and parents aware of the various language learning disabilities. Instead of allowing all the students to pass up to 10th Std., the government has to take necessary action to identify students with any kind of learning disability and extend remedial teaching for them at primary or middle school level.

Government should identify good NGOs and support their cause in improving students with specific learning disorders.

Special training should be given to teachers to handle students with specific learning disorders. They should be taught various methodologies and strategies to train the SpLD students effectively. Teachers should not convert special education into a business. They should work hard to help these students overcome their learning disabilities.

Parents should be made aware of various specific learning disorders. They should not feel inferior or make their children feel inferior. They should realise that SpLD is just a problem that can be solved and not the end of the world. They should support their children at home in all the ways possible.

Students in normal classrooms should not mock at SpLD students. Teachers, parents, and friends should motivate the students with specific learning disorders and help them in overcoming their problems with ease.

Scope For Further Research

As it was found that a percentage of students who had difficulty in learning English as a second language were not slow learners but children with specific learning disorders, detailed research needs to be done to find out effective language teaching and learning strategies for such children. Research can be conducted to find out the effect of using ‘sand’ or ‘colour clay’ to teach language at the primary level. The effectiveness of ‘Multi-Sensory Learning’, Activity Based Learning (ABL), Computer Based Teaching (CBT), Internet Based Teaching (IBT), Mobile Learning, and Multimedia Learning on Dyslexic students can also be studied in

158


detail. This is the need of the hour and steps have to be taken to help these children learn English which will in turn help them integrate with the global society.

This research project aims at studying The Waste Land by T.S. Eliot as a poem that locates itself in the background of nature and its five fundamental energies of earth, water, air, fire and sky. It accepts the existing critical opinion that The Waste Land is a modernist text collaring many fragments to present a big picture of degeneration.

The most influential poet during the period of the I World War was T.S. Eliot. He published his first collection in 1917. It radically overturned century. Eliot was determined to write about the sordid realities of modern city life. He did it in a poetic language that was often harsh in diction and imagery Eliot challenged accepted ideas about poetic themes and styles. Writers of the period of the Great War established a new school or tradition in English poetry. It came to dominate the 20th century. It is generally known by the title modernism. Eliot has been the most daring innovators of 20th century poetry. He believed poetry should aim at a representation of the complexities of modern civilization.

The Waste Land is a standard modernist text reflecting high modernism. It is the seminal poem that reflects the qualities of avant-garde literature. It is considered as a seminal modernist text in Europe. Eliot uses the technique of fragmentation to create a collage – the big picture. All the fragmented pieces together form the picture of a morally decadent society. Frank N. Magill insists that “Eliot’s mastery of the symbolist poem, his virtuosity with language, and his use of literary and historical allusion mark The Waste Land as a singular achievement in English poetry of the Twentieth century” (594).

Eliot achieves his aim of representing city life’s neurosis with his background of the five elements of nature. Indian thought has called them as Panchabhutas, whereas western analysis defines the elements as four. The Panchabhutas are Prithvi: Earth, Vayu: Air, Agni: Fire, Jal: Water and Akash: Ether.

Amaranth Dwidvedi says in his book T.S. Eliot: A Critical Study that the epoch- making poem, the Waste Land

was written against an atmosphere of destabilization and dehumanization. At its background was the horrible First World War and before its vision swam the reconstruction of a devastated human society:

“I sat upon the shore

Fishing, with the arid plain behind me.

Shall I at least set my lands in order?” (line 423-425).

But the social or even personal reconstruction is not possible until the modern man earnestly receives the triple message of the Thunder- ‘Datta, Dayadhvam, Damyata’ meaning ‘Give, Sympathise, and Control’ – and practices it faithfully in his life (114).

There are many scenes strewn over: during the month of April lilies bloom refreshed by the spring rain; in summer people went to Hofgarten and drank coffee; sometimes they went to mountains; and during winter they went to south. This is the routine of a city man. Manju Jain observes that the “title is derived from the service for the burial of the dead in the church of England. The full title of the burial service, as given in the Book of Common Prayer, is ‘The Order for the Burial of the Dead’” (151).

Modern man does not clutch to any roots or tradition. Faith has become “a heap of broken images” (line 22), People are so depressed and they find no shelter or relief anywhere. Life is so temporal that Man’s life is like a handful of dust. Society has become a

“Out of this stony rubbish? Son of man,

You cannot say, or guess,” (line 20)

that nothing fruitful can be born out of it. The poem fragments at this point and moves on to the next scene a kind of memory flashes across. The narrator is reminded of hyacinth flowers.

Harold Bloom in his book Bloom’s Guide The Waste Land asks “What are the roots that clutch?” and states that this is the central question of “The Waste Land”. Before Eliot begins to answer the question at the end of line 20, he asks another related one. “What branches grow

out of this story rubbish?” using the images, “branches” and “stony rubbish” he suggests that the poem will examine people’s lives (branches) and the culture (stony rubbish) in which they live. By yoking these two images, Eliot shows their interconnection (25).

The next scene is with a magic woman. She has a pack of cards. She is the wisest women in Europe. Each card has an image: Phoenician sailor, Belladona, man with three staves, the wheel, one-eyed merchant, a blank card. The card of the Hanged Man is missing. The scene continues with a monologue: the narrator says that he sees crowds of people walking round in a ring.

June Leavitt in her book Esoteric Symbols: The Tarot in Yeats, Eliot, and Kafka argues that the poet’s derisive attitude towards the occult is built into the very structure of Madame Sosostris stanza. Because most of the lines about her and her reading are in present tense, the three lines that are in the past tense stand out boldly. An analysis reveals that they refer to three different aspects of her debility (40).

The next scene is the description of a city. Eliot calls it ‘Unreal’. The fog is brown with industrial smoke. Death has undone so many lives during the war. There is unhappiness in society. People are sighing with frustration. They exhale short and infrequent breaths. The people have lost their ability to look straight, and look down with shame. The narrator stops a friend and asks him if the corpse they planted the previous year has begun to sprout. The line links the lilacs in the first stanza with the last stanza. Just like the lilacs, human lives will also be born again, Eliot says in ‘Burial of the Dead’. A. D. Moody insists that

there are the centers of intense personal experience which are the source and heart of the entire work, the dramatic lyrics of the hyacinth garden and the enclosed room; there are the phantasmagoric visions of the Unreal city, symbolist (or Expressionist) projections of the personal drama; and there is the application of the historical sense to discover its relevant past and so arrive at the universal form (312).

The scenes from the first part of The Waste Land are mainly from Earth or Prithvi is the first of the five elements. We can touch and feel the earth element and it is further subdivided into two parts. One that we can see is called nitya and the other that we cannot see is called the anitya. The part that we can see is like the

human body that is perishable. The one that we cannot see is the imperishable part like the soul which never dies. (The Five Elements or PanchMahaBhutas Explained) Some of the images are:

Life with dried tubers (line 7), we went in the mountain (line 17), the roots that clutch (line 19), out of this stony rubbish (line 20), deed trees give no shelter (line 23), shadow under this red rock (line 25), corpse you planted (line 71), huge of sea wood (line 94), crosses the brown land (line 175), agony in stony places (line 324), cracked earth (line 369) jungle crouched (line 398), all refer to the first element - Earth.

Most of the earthen images that are used in “the burial of the dead” suggest rejuvenation, faith in life and hope as Eliot argues that no matter however life is painful, still death suggest birth. Earth becomes a symbol for the burial of the dead so that they can be born again. There is no birth without dead and this section of the poem aims at healing the human heart encouraging the reader to believe in a life after death. The poem was written in 1922 after the First World War.

The scene differs in the second part. It takes us to a woman who is seated on a chair. The chair is like a burnished throne. It glowed on the marble. There is a candelabra with seven branches. It has designs of grape vine and cupid. The light is reflected on the table. The woman wears glittering jewels. There are satin jewel boxes with jewels. Strange perfumes come out of glass bottles, the window is open and the wind enters the room. It shakes the candle-flames. It also disturbs the shadow on the ceiling. There is a fire-place in which fire burnt in orange and green color. The mantel piece had the picture of a sylvan scene. It showed the scene of Philomel and the barbarous King. In spite of this beautiful scene, there are footsteps that moved on the stair. Under the firelight, her brushed hair glittered fiery. Jain states that the “original title of this section was ‘In the Cage’. Valerie Eliot ascribes this title to the passage from Petronius which provided Eliot with his epigraph of the Sibyl hanging from a cage, wishing for death. Eliot was possibly referring also to a short story, ‘In the Cage,’ by Henry James” (164).

The woman becomes a metaphor for luxury and comfort. She represents blind materialism. The material comforts do not guarantee peace of mind. She says

161


“My nerves are bad tonight. Yes, bad, stay with me.

Speak to me. Why do you never speak? Speak” (line 111-112).

The rich woman is lonely and has no one to speak to her. Her material wealth is not able to give her spiritual happiness. Men live like rats in alleys, in darkness, in ignorance. They do not understand the value of a simple life. Eliot says material success does not guarantee fulfillment of life. Moody describes it thus “the fact that the ‘bad nerves’ passage is genuinely dramatic means a first step towards that sympathy with others which is the basis of coming to terms with oneself” (312).

The modern man is not able to think. There are no thoughts in his mind. When the narrator asks,

“Do you remember nothing” (line 121)

the listener is not able to answer. Instead his mind is wavering, he thinks,

“Those are pearls that were her eyes” (line 124)

The listener is not able to think of an original answer. Instead, a line from a Shakespearean play flashes across his mind. In utter desperation, the speaker asks:

“What shall I do now? What shall I do?

I shall rush out as I am, and walk the street” (line 131-132)

The human frustration with life is pictured vividly. People have become thoroughly depressed due to spiritual emptiness.

Bloom in his book Bloom’s Guide: The Waste Land explains that “The Waste Land” is a riddle the reader must unravel in the quest to find “roots that clutch” and something that is more than “a heap of broken images”. Yet at the end of the poem, the poet declares that the quest has not quite been successful: “These fragments I have shored against my ruins.” They are entirely worthless, but they are, still and only, fragments nothing solid, “stony rubbish” from which nothing can grow (28). Society goes through stress and pain thinking that life has to be played like a game. If we take life too seriously, then life hits us.

The next scene takes us to a party. Women are presented as gossipers, who are full of practical wisdom. One woman advises another woman asking her to set her

teeth right. It is a post war society that Eliot describes here. The war has gone on for 4 years and now the men are coming home. Women have to make themselves pleasing to the men who have seen sufferings in war. Someone’s husband is calling out. It could be the woman’s husband-the woman who is advising.

The elements of air and fire dominate this section “A Game of Chess”. The flames of the candelabra reflect the light on the table. The air stirs the senses with synthetic perfumes and odors. The air comes through the window and helps the candle flame ascend creating a pattern on the ceiling. The sea wood is burning helped by the fresh air.

Air or vayu is the most significant of the five elements. This element also has a perishable and a non perishable part and can be best compared to air as we know it. You can feel the air when it blows or when there is a storm. The puranas mention that there are forty-nine types of winds. Some of the important types of winds as per the purana are avaha,udhava, samavaha, vivaha and pravaha,. The wind that has the capacity to take water from the ocean is called the udhava. (The Five Elements or PanchMahaBhutas Explained) Some of the images of air used in the poem are:

Strange synthetic perfumes (line 87), stirred by the air (line 89), the wind under the door (line 118), south west wind (line 286), look to windward (line 320), the road winding above (line 333), sound high in air (line366), bursts in the violet air (line 372), air were towers (line 382), only the winds home (line 388) are lines that speak of the presence of vayu-air.

Air signifies power and the “wind under the door” (line 118) signifies the loss of control over life by man. A closed door cannot keep the wind outside. Air keeps life going and helps the movement of experiences. There is no life on earth without air and the majesty of the lady, the luxury of the room is brought out by the presence of air.

The next scene is the River Thames. There are no nymphs. There are empty bottles, sandwich papers, silk handkerchiefs, card board boxes and cigarette ends. The rattle of the bones is heard. A rat creeps softly through the vegetation. Dead bodies are lying on the low damp ground. The rats have disturbed the dry bones. Sound of horns and motors are heard. Mrs

162


Porter and her daughter wash their feet with soda water. The moon light shines on them. All these images represent emotions of depression that associate with death.

“They wash their feet in soda water” (line 201)

This incident might symbolize the carelessness that accompanies depression. Moody insists that

The transformation of ‘The Fire Sermon’, early in January 1992, form an attack by a sick seer upon a world of the living dead, into an inwardly felt expression of the desolate aftermath of merely sensual passion, is really the final stage in the poem’s evolution. The new and more just perception of the external world could only follow upon the proper ordering of the poet’s self (316).

‘The Waste Land’ attacks city life and its self-centeredness. Eliot calls the city as ‘Unreal’. It is dominated by ambitious business people who meet for business lunches. There are no genuine emotions felt by these city people.

The book The Avant-Garde and the Margin: New Territories of Modernism says that amidst the modernist chaos, T.S. Eliot found a wasteland in the human metropolis, an “Unreal City/ Under the brown fog of a winter dawn.” Seferis, on the contrary, saw in Cyprus an authentic, local “Greekness,” which allowed him to construct a space where idea were no longer merely “unreal” astheticizations of Hellenic identity, today, more than half a century later his “sea-girt” island may appear as unreal as Eliot’s city (107).

Eliot compares human beings to engines or machines. In a city, people live like machines, their hearts beat like a taxi meter. The narrator identifies himself as blind Tiresias. Tiresias is the wise Greek who got the gift of immortality from the Gods, the wrinkled old man who got the power to see far beyond the power to foretell - a visionary. The rest of the scene is depicted by Tiresias about things he has the vision. He sees the sailor coming from the sea and the typist at home. The typist lives alone. In the evening she comes home, clears her breakfast table; lights her stove. Her clothes are spread on the window for drying. There is a divan which serves as her bed. Stockings, slippers, camisoles and stays are scattered all over. Later a young man arrives. He is a clerk. After they eat together they spend some

time together after which he leaves. There is no familial love and concern. Instead people have only temporary pleasure.

The next scene comes back to River Thames. Now it is described as a dirty river filled with oil and tar. The poem breaks into a song. The form too is fragmented in short stanza like lines. There is a comparison made between the river of sixteenth century, and the river of twentieth century. Fragmented dialogues complete the rest of this part. The last reference is to the burning of Carthage and to the ten commandments. Eliot tries to locate modern times with ancient epics and religions, linking the past and the present.

Gabrielle McIntire in the book The Cambridge Companion to The Waste Land explains that in

“Fire Sermon” we learn of the Thames, “The river sweats/ Oil and tar”, with the verb “sweats” likening oil to a bodily excrescence insinuating its vital role within an urban body politic. These lines inaugurate a scattershot set of voices that reference-in lines whose brevity instills a sense of rapid movement – a series of spaces within and beyond London ending in the ruined site of Carthage, whose temporal and geographic distance from the other cataloged space render it a figure for the ruin that threatens them (36).

Eliot uses the image of fire along with the image of water. “The Fire sermon” is delivered near river Thames. The old Tiresias says that he came to Carthage that is burning. The Lord “pluckest” him “burning”.

“O Lord Thou pluckest me out

O Lord Thou pluckest” (line 309-310)

Fire cleanses and its light becomes the symbol of knowledge, well being and wisdom.

Fire or Agni is again both perishable and has a part that cannot be perished. Fire is one of the eight guardians guarding the universe. The fire has the south east position occupied in the universe. There are different fires like the fire of the earth, the fire of the sky, the fire of the stomach. (The Five Elements or PanchMahaBhutas Explained) Some of the fire images in the poem are:

Flame of sevenbranched candelabra (line 82), prolonged candle-flame (line 91), burned green and orange (line 95), under the firelight (line 108), spread

163


out fiery points (line 109), burning, burning, burning, burning (line 308) reflect the element light.

Also, fire represents passion and even ambition. Humanity burns with greed and selfishness T.S Eliot points out.

This is a very short section of the poem. It talks about Phlebas, the Phonecian who was drowned in the sea. He got caught in a whirlpool under the sea. A current under the sea got his bones. Eliot warns the readers that the life of Phlebas is an important lesson. Phlebas was handsome and tall; still he could not avoid death. Life has its stress. It ends in death.

Nidhi Tiwari in her book Imagery and Symbolism in T. S. Eliot’s Poetry describes that in the section, ‘Death by Water,’ there is actual death of Phlebas, the Phoenician, by water. A parallel is seen in the last card drawn by Doris which is ‘Coffin’ or death. It is sheer coincidence that Sweeney expresses the desire to be a cannibal and ‘eat her.’ He also mentions of the killing of a girl in a bath (again death in water). This death in water had been an effort on the part of her lover to ‘divest itself of the love of created beings.’ Both deaths have hints of re-birth but the re-birth does not take place (199).

Water or jal refers to the element which can be seen as well as felt. It changes form from liquid to gaseous state and represents the cycle that goes on in nature where water evaporates and comes back to earth in the form of rain and the smaller bodies of water combine into the bigger ocean. (The Five Elements or PanchMahaBhutas Explained) Some of the images of water from the poem are:

No sound of water (line 24), the drowned Phoenician sailor (line 47), fear death by water (line 55), carved dolphin swan (line 96), river’s tent is broken (line 173), sink into the wet bank (line174), sweet Thames run softly (line 176) the water of leman (line 182), I was fishing in the dull canal (line 189), they wash feet in soda water (line 201), sailor home from sea (line 221), music upon the waters (227), the river sweats (line 266), red sails (line 270), the deep seas swell (line 313), there is no water (line 358) Ganga was sunken (line 395), the sea was clam (line 420).

The images of water denote the dryness of the human soul and its neurotic selfishness. Water is the universal symbol for cleanliness and purity. The modern man

has lost these qualities in his greed and ambition. The sunken Ganga represents the failure of human sympathy.

The section called “What the thunder said” suggests certain values to the materialist western civilization. Sweaty faces, frosty silence, agony, crying, prison - are part of this life. With a little patience, we can find a solution to these problems. The terrain is rocky. It contains no water. There is no peace anywhere. Civilizations have created many cities –

Falling towers

Jerusalem Athens Alexandria

Vienna London

Unreal (line 372-375).

There have been towers that have fallen down. Still, dry bones can harm no one, says Eliot.

There are three suggestions in the poem to tackle life:

1. DA- Datta (line 401) What have we given?

We have to give our time, our energy, our service to society, to fellow human beings.

2. DA- Dayadvam (line 410) kindness towards others

People are so closed in minds. It is like locking the doors of a prison and thinking of a key to open the doors.

3. DA- Damyata (line 417) strategies

Eliot uses the archetypal images of a boat to describe life. We have to manage the boat on waters with certain strategies.

What the thunder said deals with the element of sky or akash which does not have a perishable half. It is the sky or the ether if compared to the most common thing we know around us. It is a carrier of sound energy and when one is into deep meditation one can hear the sounds of the akash. (The Five Elements or PanchMahaBhutas Explained) Some of the images that hint at the sky are:

Dull roots with spring rain (line 4), winter kept us warm (line 5), earth is forgetful snow (line 6), summer surprised us (line 8), shower of rain (line 9), went on in sunlight (line 10), go south in winter (line 18), shadow at morning (line 28), shadow at evening (line 29), fog of winter dawn (line 61), sudden frost disturbed (line

164


73), testimony of summer nights (line 179), winter evening behind gashouse (line 190), moon shone bright (line 199), fog of a winter moon (line 208), evening that strives (line 220), the sins last rays (line 225), thunder of spring (line 327), thunder without rain (line 342), faint moonlight (line 386), spoke the thunder (line 399), only at nightfall (line 415).

Man is part of this atmosphere. Humanity cannot break out of nature. Eliot points out how our lives are closely linked with nature. We have to renew ourselves with nature. Using these well known universal images of nature, T.S Eliot describes how our lives are controlled and operated by nature. Man has to recognize the ethical value of nature and learn lessons. The Thunder teaches us close to nature and teaches us to lead a meaningful life.

These fragmented images collaged by T.S. Eliot juxtapose with each other to give meanings of hope and acceptance of life. The corpse that has been planted in the garden- the lily bulbs- will bloom after the sudden frost disturbs its bed. The natural elements live on and the human species will be supported by them. The technological civilization has to come out of its materialism and become more spiritiual. The poem ends with a call for peace: “shantih shantih shantih” (line 433). In his poem “Little Gidding,” written in 1943, Eliot says that we have to discover the voice of “hidden water fall”… (line 248) “between the two waves of the sea”…(line 252) “when the tongues of flame are in-folded”…(line 258) “the fire and rose are one.”(line 260) To him the five elements became symbols of hope and understanding of life.

Introduction

Start-ups and incubators provide tremendous support by helping the new and upcoming entrepreneurs to achieve their goals. The study provides a live description of two start-ups, which are in the crest in the present scenario.

Paul Graham says, "A startup is a company designed to grow fast. Being newly founded does not itself make a company a startup. Nor is it necessary for a startup to work on technology, or take venture funding. A start up is an entrepreneurial venture or a new business in the form of a company, a partnership firm, or temporary organisation designed to search for the repeatable and scalable business model. These companies are innovative in the process of development, validation, and research for target markets.

The exact definition of "startup" is widely debated, however, at the core most definitions are similar to what the U.S. Small Business Administration describes as a "business that is typically technology oriented and has high growth potential".

It is a business support process that accelerates the successful development of startup by providing resources and services. A business incubator’s main goal is to produce successful firms that lead programme financially viable free standing. The graduates who have potential to create jobs strengthen the local and national economics.

The formal concept of business incubation began in the US in 1959 (Batavia Industrial Centre) and later spread throughout Europe. ‘Start-up Village’ is India’s first Technology Business Incubator. It was started in 2012 as a joint partnership with the Government of India.

Top 5 incubation centres are:

• 500 Startups

• Techstars

• Excelerate Labs

• Capital Factory

• Y Combinatory

Classification of Incubators

Business Incubators (BI) promote continuous regional and national industrial and economic growth including increasing employment through general business development or stimulating specific economic objectives such as industrial restructuring and wealth generation or utilisation of resources. The incubator combines a variety of small enterprises support elements in one integrated affordable package. It has a special niche i.e. nurturing early stage, growth-oriented ventures, through focused assistance within a supportive environment.

Technology Incubators (TI) are intended for bolstering the technology development stage. The primary goal of technology incubators is to promote the development of technology-based firms and assist in completion of the technologies under development. These are located at or near universities, R&D institutes, and Science and Technology parks.

Technology Innovation Centres (TIC) conduct research and development and technology innovations required by the industrial field, which aim to jointly invest resources in university campuses or research institutions and achieve commercialisation with support from business enterprises or public institutions.

Technology Business Incubators (TBI) is a venture of universities, public research institutes, local government, and private institutions to promote and bolster a new technology intensive enterprise. TBI refers to the type of incubation where the focus group consists of innovative, mostly technology-oriented, or knowledge-intensive service sector enterprises, and interactions with the academic sphere giving a substantive element of the incubation process.

Process of Incubation

• Pre-incubation: It goes from the definition on the innovative idea to the elaboration of the Business Plan. It is typically an engineering process which starts a first appointment with the business

development staff of the IBI where the idea is analysed and initially assessed, and a very first filter is applied.

• Incubation Stage: It goes from the start-up creation through the expansion phase up to the initial maturity of the company. It is a delicate phase in which the entrepreneur will undertake the activities needed to realise the business plan, and the services delivered by an IBI will differ according to the phase in which the new company is positioned within the terms identified by the business plan itself.

• Post-Incubation Stage: It relates to the activities to be carried out when the company has reached the maturity phase and therefore is ready to walk on its own feet.

Top 10 Successful Entrepreneurs

The following are the top 10 entrepreneurs setting themselves as examples for start-ups, even before the name was coined. These entrepreneurs from the initial stage made their way for shining.

Jehangir Ratanji Dadabhoy Tata was born in Paris to Indian and French parents. He was trained as an aviator in Europe and later became India's first commercial airline pilot. Working for the family business TATA group he set out on his own and built TATA airlines which ultimately became the modern Air India.

Ghanshyam Das Birla started his first company in the early 1900s operating a cotton and textile mill. By 1919, Birla's businesses also included significant paper and sugar production. By the time he died, Birla Group was a multi-sector global conglomerate.

Dhirubhai Ambani started out humbly by selling traditional snacks to religious pilgrims. His business soon grew, and he expanded and diversified, eventually building India's largest private company Reliance Industries. Reliance has interests in telecommunication, power generation, information technology, consumer goods and logistics. Ambani's sons now run the Reliance group of companies.

Nagavara Ramarao Narayana Murthy co-founded Indian IT giant Infosys (INFY) with an initial investment of 10,000 rupees, or just a few hundred dollars in today's money. He is often referred to as the Father of the Indian IT industry, serving as CEO of Infosys from 1981 until 2002, and then its Chairman until 2011. Infosys currently has a market capitalization of around $40 billion.

Azim Premji is the Chairman of Wipro Industries, a diversified software and technology company that can be compared to Microsoft. Wipro is worth an estimated $15.3 billion, and Premji is sometimes referred to as ‘India's Bill Gates’ as a result.

Lakshmi Niwas Mittal began his career working for his father's steel business. He later set out on his own due to family infighting and created what is now one of the largest steel makers in the world ‘Arcelor Mittal’ which has a market capitalization of $16 billion.

Dilip Shanghvi started Sun Pharmaceuticals in 1982 with a meager 10,000 rupee investment. Today, that investment has grown to a value of nearly 2 trillion rupees, making Sun India's largest pharmaceutical company. Shanghvi has a net worth of $12.8 billion.

Mukesh "Micky" Jagtiani is an Indian businessman who has spent most of his life outside of India. He was educated in Mumbai and Beirut, eventually settling in London. While in London, he dropped out of college and began driving a taxi before starting his first company which eventually grew into the retail and real estate giant Landmark.

Shiv Nadar founded HCL Info systems with an investment of a few thousand dollars, selling calculators and microcomputers. HCL soon expanded to Singapore and the far-east, generating over 1 million rupees in sales not long after its expansion. HCL has continued to grow making Nadar a billionaire worth over $11 billion.

Ardeshir Godrej co-founded the Godrej Group, a diversified conglomerate with interests in real estate, consumer products, security, household appliances, and industrial tools. The company had

167


modest beginnings. Godrej Group was founded with a 3,000-rupee investment, and the Godrej companies are worth over half a trillion rupees today.

CTTE College as an Incubation Centre

for Students:

The ED cell of our college is one among the 50 colleges in Tamil Nadu selected by EDI- ICTACT for a grant of Rs.1,00,000. This fund was sanctioned to boost up entrepreneurial activities and create a congenial eco-system for the evolution of entrepreneurs in the campus. In line with this, an incubation centre is also established. This centre provides financial assistance, arranges interaction with successful entrepreneurs,

and creates opportunity for capacity building of the interested students. The students are encouraged to earn while they learn by engaging themselves in micro-ventures.

Stu Bazaar is a campus retail store of the students, by the students, and for the students. Startup ventures in jute products and bakery products are carried out successfully by the stupreneurs and are thus trained to become job providers in the future. To top it all, 2 students who underwent an entrepreneurship awareness programme conducted by EDI-ICTACT were selected through 2 phases of training for further guidance by experts to evolve as full-fledged entrepreneurs in the final phase 3.

Conclusion:

There are lots of opportunities lying before every individual to take up the start-up activities. So, it has become an important criterion to understand the link between the business objectives and the various incubators that are available. This will enhance the growth of the business unit helping us identify the strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats .Thus by creating a proper association between the business activities and the incubators, the start-ups can go for a long run in a profitable manner.

Allen. K. famously said, “The best way to predict future is to invent it. Not all of them might be able to succeed financially but all deserve to have the guts to invent the future. To start up a business, the level of risk involved is average when compared with risk taken to make the start-up sustain in the market. The sustainable idea taken to start up a business should be in such a way that it is acceptable by all the disciplines in the society. Sustainable ideas in start-ups help to turn passionate people into extra ordinary entrepreneurs.”

A start-up is an Entrepreneurial venture or a new business in the form of a company or a partnership firm designed to search for a repeatable business. It is a company that is in the early stage in the life cycle of an Entrepreneur. In other words, a company that is in the first stage of its operations. Generally, these companies are newly created and are innovative in the process of development and research for target markets. The essence of startups is generally related to the concepts of ambition, innovation, scalability, and growth. We hear the word ‘sustainable’ and ‘sustainability’ almost every day. But what does it mean exactly? Is it about people and culture, our environment, or jobs and money? Is it about cities or the country? Is it about you and me or is it something for other people to worry about?

Sustainability is about all of these things. It could be defined as an ability or capacity of something to be maintained to sustain itself. It is about taking what we need to live now, without jeopardising the potential for people in the future to meet their needs. “If an activity is said to be sustainable, it means it should be able to continue forever.”

Living sustainably is about living within the means of our natural systems (environment) and ensuring that our lifestyle doesn’t harm other people.

This pie chart defines the team size and its capability to succeed in a start-up. Firstly, if a team consists of less than 20 members, the percentage of development is just 9%. Secondly, if a team consists of 20-40 members, the percentage of development is 28%. Thirdly, if a team consists of 40-100 members, the percentage of

development is 23%. Fourthly, if a team consists of more than 100 members, the percentage is up to 40%. Through this, we can see that if the members are less, the start-up may fail. If the members are in acceptable number, the sustainability is maintained.

Leading Business Ideas:

The leading business ideas in India for the manufacturing sectors are:

• Software

• Tobacco products

• Computers and peripheral equipment

• Consumer goods

• Cellphones

• Educational products

• Chemical products

• Intellectual property

• Equipments

Seven Ways to Sustain Ideas

in Startups:1. Manage your Gremlins with kindness:

Start-ups often stop because they listen to and believe their inner voice that tells them that they can’t succeed. They are basically the thoughts inside your mind that plant seeds of doubt about your ability to be or do something magnificent. At some point, get to know what message your gremlin is trying to tell you by working with a Coach or Counsellor. You can develop a positive mindset that helps to lessen the frequency of these voices, but they will always pop up. The trick is to learn how to manage them and stay positive.

2. Design your self-care menu:

To sustain a startup, you need to be able to sustain yourself and optimize your wellness. Put in place a simple mind-body-soul system which is going to

ensure that you love yourself as you love others. Wellness doesn’t cost a lot; in fact, it can be free!

• Meditate for 10-15 minutes a day.

• Do daily affirmations and a gratitude practice that just needs a pen and paper.

• Do simple yoga or body stretches wherever you are.

• Walk, jog, jump, dance, or stretch whenever you feel to do so.

• Make a nourishing juice, soup, or stew by visiting a local farmer’s market.

• Get into nature - earth or sea - wherever you feel most alive and positive.

• You can be with a loved one (partner, family, or friend) and laugh for which is also a kind of meditation.

3. Put your mission, vision, and value first:

We're all searching to know exactly who we are, what we want, and why we're here. When you get clear in life, not just business, your inner drive and intrinsic motivation is going to propel you forwards over any startup challenge. Think of an entrepreneur or other public figure or someone you know, who’s been disadvantaged in some way but still achieved an amazing feat. What helped them do it? It should an inner knowing of who they were, what they wanted do, and why.

4. Develop an Entrepreneurial mindset:

To endure in business and life, you need what is called ‘an entrepreneur’s mindset’.

• IMPROVE: Successful entrepreneurs never think that they know it all. Successful entrepreneurs believe that they should grow as professionals and aim to improve their skill sets.

• ACCEPT: Successful entrepreneurs choose carefully their emotional battles and avoid stressing about things that they can’t change. This is liberating feeling, which can help every person to concentrate on the important things which they can actually do something about, not on the things which they can’t control. Successful people look for the opportunities in the problems, not the opposite.

• STAY AT THE PRESENT MOMENT: Successful entrepreneurs never obsess about the past mistakes; they learn from the past and move on. Successful entrepreneurs concentrate on the present moment, try to do their best at this moment, because this is what their future will be based on.

• VALUE YOUR NETWORK: Successful entrepreneurs work hard to build strong network and support system and value all their connections. They are ready to expand their network and strengthen their connections with other people who can inspire, motivate, advise, or mentor them.

• CELEBRATE THE SUCCESS OF OTHERS: Successful entrepreneurs help other people to achieve their dreams and goals. They are happy to see that other people succeed, because entrepreneurship is all about achieving great that can be beneficial for everyone, not just for one person.

5. Commit to your plan daily:

The most successful startups have a plan; it could be a business plan or even a mind map. They know where they are, and where they want to get to. They’ve worked out steps that help them get from the ‘now’ to creating the ‘legacy’, and know what steps they have to take action on any given day to make their dream a reality.

• Evernote for ideas, plans, and tasks

• Visionboard as the Desktop image to keep you inspired

• Gmail calendar for whole-life schedule

Find what planning tool works for you and stick to it daily. It’s the consistency of the habit and commitment to complete that leads to productivity and completion.

6. Manifest money with Integrity:

Don’t be too proud to review what you’re doing and choose to do anything it takes to get your startup and yourself enough money to survive.

• What money is coming in? What money is going out?

• What is the one quick thing you can do to get cash coming into your account to sustain yourself?

170


• Ask a family member or family for help.

• Get freelance work; join a recruitment agency to get temporary work in your expertise.

You don’t have to sell your soul, but you do have to take responsibility for yourself and your business. Work out a 12-month timescale so you know how long you have to give yourself to stabilize your income to pay back into your startup. Your dream legacy will happen, but for now, you’re focusing on stabilising your startup.

7. Share your message globally for free:

Startups often don’t succeed or flourish into a full-fledged business, due to their lack of ability to get their message out there which is so sad! They don’t speak to their community or ask why their tribe needs what they’ve got to sell. Make time to ask questions to your community and ask them what they want or need. The more people know about who you are, what you stand for, the more they champion, work with you, or support you to sustain your startup.You can jump on board other campaigns that have the potential to promote you to a wider audience.

Case Study:

Promethean Power Systems:

Promethean Power Systems design and manufacture refrigeration systems for cold-storage applications in off-grid and partially electrified areas of developing countries. Their products enable food suppliers to reliably store and preserve perishable food items such as milk, fruits and vegetables without the need for expensive diesel-powered generators. They believe that creating a cost-effective solution for cold-chain food distribution in emerging markets is an excellent business opportunity that could also deliver enormous social and environmental benefits. The problem Unreliable electricity in villages = low milk quality + high transportation cost has been efficiently solved by the Promeathen Power Systems.

There are other Promethean Systems such as:

o Promethean's Thermal Storage System (TSS)

o Promethean’s Solar Power Option (SPO)

o Promethean Cold Storage System (CSS)

o Promethean Conventional Milk Chiller (CMC)

o Promethean Rapid Milk Chiller (RMC)

Conclusion:

Start-ups and entrepreneurship are critical to India’s efforts to restart private investment to improve the economy. Though there are many obstacles like government corruption, complex approval process,

171


and the power of entrenched corporates to oppose or kill start-ups, many start-ups are able to overcome the obstacles and have proved their sustainability. Government measures like tax incentives, cost saving measures and funding support will undoubtedly drive investments into innovative start-ups. In a county like India where unemployment problem is more, educated and creative youth must come forward to set up the business of their own either in technical or non-technical areas. Start-up India Hub assists by providing advisory services on financing, business restructuring, and improving management skills.
