EMERGENCY!!! EMERGENCY!!!

CHAKRAVYUHA TEASER POSTER

Chakravyuha, like any other big event, is not free from regular hiccups!! It was a fine day of  19th August!! All was going good i.e. same boring classes, same Chakravyuha meeting at 4 pm Thermal Lab...the video-making software getting crashed now and then....in short, it was like any other pre-Chakravyuha day...we were taking a power nap when suddenly i felt an earthquake!!! Oops!! My phone is vibrating like hell..maybe another volunteer churning up an excuse for not coming today!!! But it was the Secretary of Chakravyuha!! The message was bitter than a death sentence- COME TO THERMAL LAB IMMEDIATELY WITH LAPTOPS!!!!

WORK ON PROGRESS

I took off immediately!! The Thermal Lab looked grimer!! We have to make a database of all the colleges of India right now!!! As far as Google has counted, India has over 600 colleges!!! And we cant leave the lab before its complete...in short, be ready to spend the whole night amongst the strong smell of petrol, mean machines and grumbling volunteers!!

RACING AGAINST TIME

We as usual, were short of laptops!!! More people started gathering!!! All asked the same question-Why cant we do it in the room???  The problem is at room noone will work..
We started tapping CTRL+C+V from already compiled list of colleges around the country!! The task sounded boring but it was fun having everyone around!! Even stupid things with friends are fun!!!
Pranay Bhaiya divided us into teams and gave each team one or two states to cover. But problems started when we started mixing the states and many states got repeated...Soon the lab started resonating with "uff!!! Why didnt you tell me that you were doing this state????

600 COLLEGES!!!COME ON!!

We all were pretty hungry!! The list was huge!! First time we felt bad that India is so huge!!! Why coudnt it be as small as Vatican City???
Sunil, HR and Inventory manager of Chakravyuha took up the herculean task of arranging food for all!!!

FOOD!!!!

The worst part of my life was waiting for Sunil to come back with the promised food..We waited in patience as our digestive juice tickled down our stomach... Then came the food!! Aloo Paratha never tasted better..

SECRETARIES

The corporate amosphere of Chakravyuha turned into a late night picnic...

ALL WORK AND NO FOOD MAKES US A HUNGRY BOY

Rahul and Avishek ventured out of the lab to enjoy food below moonlit!! They ran into a dog with the sophisticated palate!! It didnt even touch any food offered to him..He just stared at us with a "Come on dude, Cant u even get a pizza" look..

THE DOG WITH A FINER SeNSE OF TASTE

The fun and frolic of dinner was soon engulfed with two hours of busy work..The work got complete!
We finally left well after midnight cursing heavily the classes we have next morning!!

It was one of the best experience  in my life!! Chakravyuha is more than just a tech fest for us!! its a part of our life now!!
