Former IAS Officer Dr. Aruna (Limaye) Sharma unveils 'You @ Game Changer'
by Shrutee K/DNS
The
Indian constitution is the most notable document for an Indian as it mentions
about the fundamental rights of each and every Indian citizen. Provision of
basic necessities like developed infrastructure, clean water and surroundings,
etc. are a part of the constitution and that the government should provide the
taxpayers the said amenities. To look after the public sector, the government
employs a civil servant. Civil servants then make it a priority to put citizens
in first place and to represent their interests. One of the many examples of
the enthusiastic civil servants is Dr. Aruna Sharma who is a retired civil
servant and has been playing an active role in the development of the nation.
Knowing
that not many citizens are aware about their rights to basic necessities and
the funds provided by the Government for the same, Dr. Sharma decided to spread
awareness by launching ‘You @ Game Changer for Inclusive Growth’, a highly
insightful book at Four Seasons, Mumbai. Even after retiring, Dr. Sharma, continues
her contribution towards the country.
During
the launch of the book, she addressed the people and mentioned how each
constituency can tackle the funds available and make the country a better place
to live. She aesthetically stated this in an example
“One should decide whether the mint should be sold as a vegetable in the market
or make profit by making menthol out of it and the remainders of which can be
sold as masala in the market”. Her insights dexterously explained how a village
can be smart, how prosperity can be dynamic, how community can play a role for
the growth of the same and so on while giving an overview of the book.
Mr.
Manish Gupta from Indra Publishing House expressed how this book demonstrated
the power to bring a positive change in the society and encouraged them to
publish it.
Also
present there, Mr. Shifuji Bhardwaj - a well-known actor as well as a trained
martial arts professional, joined hands to strengthen the cause of spreading
awareness which Dr. Sharma has been doing. Mr. Bhardwaj believes that the youth
has the power to transform the world with their active and positive energy. “It
is the coming generation that can change things how it wants to and the social
media will be the helping hand for it", quotes Mr. Bhardwaj. He considers
the association with Dr. Sharma to be a boosting message for the people who
believe they can bring some change.
The
book reading session educated the people in the hall on how the Constitution
has amendments for its people and how it can be put to use for bestowing each
citizen with their fundamental rights.
