 Biotech the new
buzzword
Infotech is passe,
biotechnology is the rage. It is in the forefront of research in
developed countries and the trend is catching on in India. In a decade
from now, the mantra would be bioinformatics, a fusion of infotech and
biotechnology, writes Manish Kumar Singal
ONE
bright morning, a group of go-getters in Guru Gobind Singh
Indraprastha University came running out of their class, jabbering
excitedly. The reason was not far to seek: A month from now, all of
them would be heading for foreign shores on scholarship.
HOW I MADE IT

matter of calculated moves’

Sunil Gupta success "is not just a matter of chance, instead it
is a game of calculated moves." Nor does he undermine the role of
hard work. "To me success never came overnight, rather it had to

OFFBEAT OPTIONS
Making moolah out of marriages
Komal Vijay Singh
Inspired by Bollywood flicks and star-studded Page Three events,
the Great Indian Wedding has become a designer affair. But often,
behind the glitz and glamour is the sweat and toil of the wedding

of a wedding planner and serials like Hum Sab Baraati may give
it a comic twist, but planning a wedding is serious business.
