Mom, let's go for a movie tomorrow. |
I don't have to go to school. |
It is a holiday. |
Oh, tomorrow is the 14th of April right? |
Your dad will also have the day off from work. |
We can make a movie plan! |
That's a good news! |
Why is it a holiday though? |
Are all schools, colleges and offices closed tomorrow? |
It is Ambedkar Jayanti tomorrow! |
This day is celebrated annually to mark the birth of Dr. B. R Ambedkar. |
Have you heard of him? |
I think I have seen him in my History and Civics book. |
Is he related to our Constitution? |
Absolutely! He is known as the father of the Indian Constitution. |
He was a civil rights activist who played a major role in formulating the Constitution. |
He played a crucial part in shaping the vibrant democratic structure that India prides itself upon. |
I remember now! |
We were discussing about him in our Civics class the other day. |
Ma'am said that she will tell us more about him when we do the chapter on the Indian Constitution |
He fought to remove the class distinction that prevailed in the society, right? |
Yes. Being a Dalit himself, he realised how hard is it to deal with the evil of untouchability. |
Thus, he fought for the rights of the lower class. |
He extensively campaigned against the discrimination and came out victorious. |
Wow, what a strong personality! |
That is why the day is also commemorated as Equality Day all across the subcontinent. |
I am sure you are going to love reading about this man when you study the chapter in school. |
Yes mom, I can't wait for it. |
I am really intrigued. |
Okay, now tell me what movie do you want to go for? |
Do you want to watch the new Marvel movie? |
You mean Doctor Strange and the Multiverse of Madness? |
I am dying to watch it. |
Can you book the tickets? |
Let me talk to Dad. |
Hey, you are pursuing.a course in web designing, aren't you? |
One of my friends is thinking of doing the same so, I told her I'd get some information from you about it. |
Yeah, I am in my second year. |
That's great, so what does she want to know? |
Which are the colleges that offer a diploma course in web designing? |
She is not very sure of her choice, so she just wants to try it out at this point. |
Ok, I get that. |
It is available at a lot of colleges like the School of Fashion Technology, Pune; Stella Maris College, Chennai and Loyola College, Chennai among numerous others. |
You went to Loyola College, right? |
Yeah, I studied there. |
These colleges that you mentioned are pretty well known. |
What is the entrance process? |
Yeah, some colleges conduct their own entrance exams. |
They look at the 10th and 12th standard grades as well. |
There are national tests like the NID Entrance Exam, too. |
My friend did really well for her boards, so she can ace any merit-based entrance. |
She is not so confident in her creative skills. |
How long is the diploma course in these universities? |
It usually lasts between a year or two. |
It actually depends on the college you take admission at. |
Are the career options good? |
Yeah, the job prospects in this field are promising. |
This is especially considering the world becoming increasingly digital. |
Hmm.. I see what you mean. |
Do you know anyone who has taken this course before? |
Yeah, one of my friends did a diploma in web designing some five years back. |
He is a successful web designer today. |
Can I have his contact information, if you don't mind? |
Its so that I can give it to my friend so she can talk to someone in detail about the course. |
Of course, I shall send you the contact on WhatsApp. |
Am I too late? |
Did the parade start? |
I don't know why I overslept. |
Don't worry, you are right on time. |
It has just been 5 minutes. |
Come and have a seat. |
What did I miss? |
Nothing much! Just the unfurling of the national flag by the President. |
And the booming 21-gun salute to the president. |
At present, the different regiments of the Army, Navy, and Air Force, along with their bands are marching from the Rashtrapati Bhawan along the Rajpath. |
Where are they heading to? |
To the India Gate and finally to the Red fort. |
As each of them go by, they pay homage to the President. |
And look how he in turn is standing up and encouraging them as they march forward. |
I wish to see all of it in person someday. |
What about the representation of different states? |
Will it be after the army marches past? |
Yes, once all the regiments march away, they will arrive. |
Each state is represented by a tableaux. |
They showcase the history, culture, heritage, dvelopment programmes and environment of their respective states. |
They carry some animations and sound along with them. |
It is a very colorful display. |
Yeah, and my favourite part of the entire parade too. |
I still remember how the tableaux of West Bengal was decorated last time. |
And also the dancers on it, exhibiting the folk dance form of rural bengal. |
I wonder what they have in store this year. |
Let us wait and watch. |
But do not forget, you have your sit and draw competition today at around 12 noon. |
Are you prepared for that? |
I have practised my sketches already. |
I am drawing a glimpse of the Republic Day parade itself. |
I hope I can bag a prize. |
Do not bother about the prizes. |
Just enjoy yourself out there. |
I wish you all the best. |
