So, anyway, I wake up to this date.<\/p>\n

The D\u2019Day: 8th<\/sup> Feb<\/h2>\n

Waking up early had been a rare thing in past so many days, but I had to for this once. And may the force be with me for the next weeks. Got read, packed my stuff. Cellphone \u2013 check. Backup phone \u2013 check. Laptop \u2013 check. Internet \u2013 check. Backup internet \u2013 check. Backup of backup internet \u2013 check for sure! Reported to Jatan office from where we went to receive our guests at the airport. After getting comfortable, having breakfast, began our day of introductions and local sightseeing. We went to places like Fatehsagar (yes who can miss that in Udaipur), Pichola lake, Saheliyo ki Bari (thanks to the project, haven\u2019t been there since childhood days) and a few more. People were friendly, as well as there were a few familiar voices with whom we had been talking to from months, just turned into faces. We gelled just quite well.<\/p>\n

\"Random<\/a>

Random shot with the Softchoice Team<\/p><\/div>\n

After a few places visited we came to the Jatan office in Udaipur, where we took a high tea halt, Kailash ji, founder, Jatan Sansthan gave a briefing about Jatan\u2019s ideologies, work areas, and provided all of us with souvenir kit.<\/p>\n

\"Selfie<\/a>

Selfie time – Kailash Ji, Me and Rajat<\/p><\/div>\n

Merrily, we departed for Railmagra. After settling them into their prebaked hotel at Rajsamand, I and Rajat were escorted to Jatan\u2019s Railmagra office, the place from where Jatan began its journey. To my surprise there already were a few people I already knew. Food was ready and after having dinner we headed back to the guest house situated at a walking distance from the office. The day that marked the beginning of a new experience came to an end.<\/p>\n

What follows<\/h2>\n

Obviously the next morning. So, here\u2019s the drill: get up early, err bit even earlier. There would be power outage from 7 a.m. to 9 a.m. So you need to get up at about 6, so that you can utilize the water heater in winters. If you are lucky enough, you\u2019ll get hot water and yourself at the first in the queue. Wait. Hold on for a second. There are two bathrooms and three of us roomies (me, Rajat and Bhupen from Jatan Railmagra), how can there be luck factor and queue? \u201cNotice the other room nearby? There are more guests. A group of girls from Indian Institute of Management, Udaipur (IIM-U) out here for rural exploration\/study etc. Hence one of the bathroom is reserved for them. We have only one bathroom for us.\u201d Okay fine. So I\u2019m trying to keep myself awake, getting up the earliest, and water is about to heat to the right temperature, and the door slams. Wait, what? A girl already went to the bathroom because theirs was occupied by some other girl. I thought I was the first. Yes, I became the first one \u2018in the queue\u2019. I suddenly got the first hand experience of how general category feels in competitive exams vis-\u00e0-vis the reserved category. With all due respect and no offence meant to hurt anybody, all this was in plain humor. I knew I was going to enjoy this pseudo-college hostel fun. Finally anyway got ready, left for the Jatan office, had breakfast and everyone was welcomed, greeted in the Rajasthani style, and we discussed what is to be done.<\/p>\n

We were then taken to a construction site in a small village \u2018Pachamta\u2019. This had to be a building where there would be an e-Lab out of the four as proposed in the project. The Softchoice team was to volunteer into building that building! Quite admirable. That day we split up in teams of three, and worked along with the masons and labourers, helping them in the construction of the building. Hadn\u2019t moved out of my chair for long, so that day was a tiresome to say the least. Softchoice team does have a stamina, to add. From the next day onwards, a part of team would stay with me at the Jatan office to set up the computers, activating them, setting up servers, setting up the network schematics, etc. and rest of the team would go to the construction site at Pachamta with Rajat. This would add to the daily drill.<\/p>\n

Setting up a network here in Railmagra for the e-Lab was quite a challenge for the Softchoice team. For a country that works at 4G speeds, setting up a network in sub 2G speeds, as well as a place where power outages are quite common, is a big challenge. To my surprise, the entire Softchoice team never came across \u201cInverter\u201d as a device. Maybe an Asian jugaad it is which isn\u2019t needed in that part of the world. Dan from Softchoice is a real genius at networks. He is more than forty years old (oops if I wasn\u2019t supposed to leak it), and carries the energy of a 20 year old. We just kept talking and talking about networks, IT, hardware, etc and the differences between the systems in India and Canada. Subsequently, we did need to change the network schematic owing to the slower internet connection. Ranveer ji from Jatan came to the rescue at the right moment to inquire various agencies for a faster internet connection that could set things better.<\/p>\n

Every evening, we would go to some place\/village for exploring Rajasthan in detail. I did mention \u2018exploring\u2019 as I already mentioned, everything was as new to me as it was to them. Have been to rural West Bengal, but everything there and here are far different. One evening we went to a youth group meeting with the kids in Pachamta village where they discussed the ambitions and aspirations of the local village kids and announced the good news of the upcoming eLabs for them.<\/p>\n

The kids were really happy and excited from the news that they can have access to knowledge at an accessible location. You don\u2019t always see foreigners in a remote village, so they were surprised as well. They asked a lot of questions, ranging from \u201cwhat do you people eat there\u201d, to \u201chow are we going to benefit\u201d. Softchoice team was moved by the session, I must say. They had been putting their efforts for the right cause, I must add. We clicked a lot of selfies with the kids and then returned.<\/p>\n

Everyday after returning, while everyone else would go to sleep, I would stay awake and work. Apart from my upcoming presentation, I had a design project in hand, the deal for which closed coincidentally after I reached Railmagra. Work triple jobs a day. Sleep, see you some other day. Rajat did use to repeat a phrase, \u201cjeevan sangharsh hai (Life\u2019s a struggle)\u201d. Felt true to some extent.<\/p>\n

Next day same drill continues, only for a difference the teams were taken to a meeting with women group and PRI members, for knowing the situation of women better in the village, as well as the family situations. Slowly a lot of crowd emerged and every woman actively participated in discussion. The meeting was held in Lapsya village. A lot of questions were exchanged between the women from Canada and women from Lapsya. Speaking of societal evils, such as domestic violence, etc. women face them whether they are in Lapsya or Canada. That puts everything related to development in question. We just do not need to develop or evolve technologically. We also do need to evolve in our thought processes. Though in lesser numbers, but if women are facing problem in developed countries as well, then to what benchmark are the developing nations proceeding?<\/p>\n

Well that question can be answered only with time. This week was ending and I was due in Jatan\u2019s Udaipur office for some other consultation requirement. My hefty time schedule comes to an end. One thing if I could regret was, I couldn\u2019t be with the Railmagra-Softchoice team for the next week. Early morning, I and Krishna from Jatan take a multiple lifts to reach Udaipur. Directly reported to Jatan office. One large cup of black coffee as my breakfast and I was green to go with another file in my hand, and a lot of memories in my mind.<\/p>\n

My Takeaways<\/h2>\n

Speaking of the takeaways, first of all I had made some really wonderful friends in Railmagra and from Softchoice. Realized that my spoken English isn\u2019t that bad too. Kan ji, who used to make us food, to Ranveer ji, who used to take care of entire Jatan at Railmagra. Ranveer ji used to share some great incidents from his younger days that kept us amazed. Not to forget the energy of Rajat, Nick and Dan, entire Softchoice team\u2019s warm and friendly nature, Tammy who was always eager to learn new phrases in Hindi and took notes, to sessions on \u2018how to eat chapati with hands\u2019. Getting to know about things and cultures in Canada, I found another fellow fitness lover in Charo and a Chris Nolan movie lover in Chris Roberts, and Tara, who was surprised to find a meaning of her name here in India. Entire trip was just wow! I carried a truckload of memories.<\/p>\n

Speaking of other takeaways, this was first time I lived with a room-mate at a remote place (at least I thought so). The experience was a fun and a takeaway in itself, but taught me that things are never that bad as fearful they appear at first from a distance (maybe because the internet was working well in the evenings, else I could have other opinions too).<\/p>\n

I got to explore the rural Rajasthan in detail. And that too, from the eyes of people who were guest to the country. I realized how colorful and vivid our country is. We sadly wish to upgrade to urban lifestyle but that\u2019s a rather plain jane. We, however live a far more colorful life and closer to the nature. Something we should be proud of. Social evils prevail everywhere, its just the quantity. In India they might be more, but again we have a population of a billion plus people. Its on us, the living beings to evolve and come past these social evils.<\/p>\n

Besides the colors and vividity, I got to see the problems our people face which are elementary in nature. To strengthen them would take a lot of efforts, but it would empower us as a nation in a longer run. For a better education, knowledge enhancement and connectivity of rural India, the efforts taken by Softchoice is commendable. I personally wish Jatan and Softchoice all the very best for every future endeavour.<\/p>\n

\"Blurry<\/a><\/p>\n

Now, was the decision wise?<\/h2>\n

Part one ended on this question. Well, let me be Chris Nolan on this one. You\u2019ve read it, you probably know the answer by now. Write your answer in the comments. Thanks for reading \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
