Its been a month since abhishek and myself have been in Raigarh,Chhattisgarh to pursue our PG in Thermal Power Plant Engineering.We have been provided accommodation in Vrindavan Hostel which is around 4km from the city of Raigarh.It has nice AC rooms with a gym too.The institute lies in the center of Jindal Power Limited's 4x250 MW Thermal Power Plant's Premises.The classrooms are good with AC.The only problem lies in the distance between the institute and the hostel.it is around 40km and a part of the road is marred with potholes the size of which will sink a maruti 800 car.Add to it the number of huge trucks carrying loads of coal from the nearby coalfields and you have a recipe for accidents.At an average 2 accidents take place everyday.The highest so far has been 5 in one day.Hopefully till the time we complete this course nothing will happen to us.
Which brings me to the other issue here.Before coming here I was all gung ho about the chance to get placed in Jindal Power Limited but after seeing the state here I no more feel the same.The City of Raigarh is very small with no proper shops and restaurants.The staying options of hostels aren't good (i don't like living in hostels however good they are) And the remoteness of the region have all have dampened my excitement.All I can do now is wait and see what companies come for placement and hopefully I get placed in the best of the lot.
As for the people here,they are all good natured fellows.Even my fellow students are good except the disgusting habit of spewing swear words before a sentence starts and after a sentence ends.
Also we have our 10th classmates here.Satya,Ravi teja whom we fondly call Dido and Rakesh have also joined and we have formed a nice group.!
One month has passed and 11 months remain.Have many places to visit and of course get placed too!
