The journey so far

          After passing out Internship at Chandigarh, Saran was already there as the other U batchers had moved out. Moved to Dharchula along with Alok Rattan Sharma where we were together in the same unit, though hardly stayed in the unit as were located in different axis.
        
          Got married with Reena and then moved to Aurangabad where Wajiha was there who moved out on my joining. Sukriti came into our life during the stint and from there to Hissar, where we were blessed with Kartik. Met SC Mishra in a freak incident when two planes collided over Charkhi Dadri. Then to Jorhat where we met Sany who was moving out from Shillong at the transit camp. Then to Chandimandir where I got exposure to administration under a hard task master. First station where we had an interaction with U Batchers. Moved to Orissa for medical relief after the Supercyclone and understood the pain and devastation of the people. Thereafter to Ahmedabad where again was deployed after the Tsunami and moved to Chennai by air and the by Naval ship towards Banda Aceh but were then diverted to Colombo, Sri Lanka.
            Moved to Jaipur for Study leave and then to Headquarters where every year got the opportunity to visit AFMC during the yearly jamboree. Had an opportunity to attend a HIV AIDS workshop at Bangkok and then a four and half month course at San Antonio, Texas.

            There after moved to command of a hosp in J & K and then again upgrading a mil hosp auth six addl spl at Gaya which was a challenging task. Now in a relaxed set up at Jodhpur trying to pick up the leaves of thought, regarding the future course of actions and exploring places.
