‘Dream big, aim high': DIG's message to competitive exam aspirants at KSOU event
Deputy Inspector General of Department of Fire and Emergency Services Ravi D. Channannavar on Tuesday said that there are two types of influences in every person's life — one negative and one positive. Bad habits and time wasting are negative influences, while reading books and the company of good friends are positive influences.
Speaking at a UGC-NET/K-SET coaching camp organised by the Competitive Examination Training Centre of Karnataka State Open University (KSOU) here, he elaborated on how to face various competitive examinations step-by-step. Candidates preparing for competitive exams must have a timetable. Without it, success is impossible, he opined.
Addressing the candidates, he said, 'When I write competitive exams, I practice question papers from the past 10 years. Then I focus on the general knowledge paper, and also focus on revisions. This formula is essential for everyone appearing for competitive exams.'
Quoting Swami Vivekananda's words, Mr. Channannavar said, 'If there is a road to heaven, it must pass through hell.' He emphasised that those who dream of building a better society should set their sights on achieving high positions.
KSOU Vice-Chancellor Sharanappa V. Halse also spoke at the event. Centre coordinator Jainahalli Satyanarayana Gowda, and others were present.
