As time progressed, I realised that the people in the organization were open to radical thoughts on improving their systems. They really believed that I could solve some of their problems and bring about a change. And this encouraged me a lot. Help and guidance was always available from anyone I approached. In depth interviews were conducted with people from various walks of the organization. Copious amount of data was collected from various sources and various analyses were done. All my efforts in collecting and analysing data would be evaluated in a week’s time.
Off work, Beawar being strategically located in Rajasthan, was close to all the famous cities like Jaipur, Jodhpur, Udaipur and Ajmer, which were left to be explored on the weekends. The beautiful palaces and the historically important hill - forts are typical of the state and are worth a visit. The old city areas with its narrow lanes and the picturesque lakes provide a different experience altogether.
When it was confirmed that I was going to be in Rajasthan, many requests were made to me by friends to take selfies in the desert. To my pleasant surprise, I found that the township in which the accommodation was provided was quite not what I expected. It was a nicely planned township with lot of green cover, where I could sight various differently coloured birds and occasionally, peacocks. One wouldn’t have believed such a beautiful place existed in this area unless they had seen it. The guest house served awesome Rajasthani food (Being a vegetarian helped!) and the smell of butter rotis made my heart melt every single time.
This has been an incredible experience both professionally and personally and with just a week left in my internship, I’m here wondering how the two months flew by.
