Hemant Nimbalkar IPS

Attended 'Patramaharshi, Padma Shri Dr Pratapsinh G. Jadhav SahasraChandraDarshan Sohala (80th Birthday)' and the release of the autobiography 'Sinhayan' in Kolhapur today with @IPSHemant. His Highness & MP Shri Shahu Chhatrapati Maharaj of Kolhapur also blessed the function along with @PawarSpeaks presiding over the function. The dignitaries present were viz; Hon CM of Maharashtra @Dev_Fadnavis Ji @RamShindeMLA @rahulnarwekar @mieknathshinde @AjitPawarSpeaks @RamdasAthawale @neelamgorhe @vishwajeetkadam @satejp @Jayant_R_Patil Ji and various eminent personalities from across the different spheres. His autobiography, ‘Sinhayan,’ is not merely a memoir or an attempt to tell his own story alone but story of Maharashtra through his journalistic lenses. An essential record of Maharashtra's political, cultural, spiritual, and industrial history viewed through his unique perspective. Journalist in him has consistently focused on solutions rather than merely raising questions, effectively using the 'Pudhari' platform to address and resolve social challenges. The newspaper has always stood for the development of Kolhapur and ensured every voice is represented loud enough to reach the concerned.

After seeing #12thFail I checked around and spoke to a number of young people about the relative difficulty of our entrance exams. One of them was a graduate of IIT who is involved in a business startup but who has also taken the UPSC exam. He stated EMPHATICALLY that UPSC is much tougher than the IIT JEE. I wonder if this is a commonly held perception, in which case this ranking needs to change!
