I Rotaract Club of Bangalore Indiranagar
Name of the Club Rotaract Club of Bangalore Indiranagar

District RID 3190 About our Club and our Activities Rotaract Club of Bangalore Indiranagar, sponsored by the Rotary Club of Bangalore Indiranagar, was chartered on 12th December 1981. We have 49 members as of now and our strength has been ever increasing. Our major projects in the past include ‗Joy of Giving Week‘ in 2009 (where each Rotaractor organised a community service project), Youth Exchange programs to Sri Lanka in 2010, RYLA (for professional development)and Pitch Fever (a six a side cricket tournament for RID 3190) in 2011. We have also been sponsoring the education of 3 children at Sumanahalli since 2 years; the funds for this project are raised through movie fund raisers (Raavan and Dhobi Ghat). On the community service front, we have been organizing projects every month, where a group of Rotaractors take ownership of a cause and serve to the best of their abilities. Our projects include helping orphanages, old age homes, animal welfare centres, medical

institutions etc. To be environmental, we signed an Eco-Awareness campaign jointly with a few clubs in the district, led a joint online ‗Say No to Crackers‘ campaign and also a ‗Waste Management‘ online campaign. To further our cause of being environmental, we publish an e-copy of our monthly newsletter ‗Youth Seva‘ instead of a hard copy. ‗Youth Seva‘ went on to win the ‗Best Bulletin‘ award in RID 3190 for the Rotaract year 2010-2011. We have been active in a lot of district events which include Rotafest, ICGF, IDYE to Nepal (where 3 of the 4 members of the IDYE team were from our club), Aarambh (a state level sports meet for the disabled) and Odyssey (Annual Rotaract District Conference). At Odyssey, our club won 4 awards including the Best Community Based Club and 7 awards at the 34th Rotaract District Awards. These include Best Community Based Club, Best President (for Community Based Club), Best Bulletin, Outstanding Rotaractor, Best Joint Project, Best Supporting Club in the District Events and the Award for Membership Retention and Extension. Pictures speak a thousand words..

Incoming Projects and Programs of RCBI Mere change is not growth. Growth is the synthesis of change and continuity, and where there is no continuity, there is no growth.- C.S. Lewis Rotaract is a platform to make that change in society, and we as the youth have that power. Rotaract Club of Bangalore Indiranagar has won laurels from the district this past year. Thanks to the able leadership of the past presidents who have laid a very strong foundation, this year we hope to maintain the same momentum. There is a general misconception about the differently abled among most people, including many of us in the club. We believe that we need to understand the differently abled more. We therefore intend to visit the Spastic Society of Karnataka and the Association of people with disability so that we can better understand the world of the differently abled. We will also be conducting a painting competition at the Spastic Society of Karnataka and these painting will then be made into calendars and the proceeds from which will go to them. We also intend to continue the programme of conducting a community service project every month. Stage fright is a reality amongst most of us. We are always amazed at the way certain speakers are able to capture the audience and put across the ideas effectively. Therefore in the avenue of professional service, we intend to have a work shop on effective public speaking. We hope to build bridges between the various Rotaract districts in India and abroad, thus we will be doing various projects with clubs in India and abroad. While discussing amongst ourselves, we realize that we have not seen the old Bangalore. As a part of club service, we intend to hike our way across the city. We also intend to go on treks in areas around Bangalore. While we do our bit for society and make that difference, we don‘t forget to have fun at the same time. The Rotaract movement has helped us to foster and strengthen ties between not only people but also countries and has broadened our horizon. Bangalore – The city that lets you be..

―Bengaluru‖ on paper, ―Bangalore‖ in the heart of every true Bangalorean - the city with a population of approximately five point eight million people boasts of being the third most populous one in the county. Bangalore sprawls over 741 km² and is touted as the Silicon Valley of India. This is how Bangalore can be described, and while these points are all factually accurate, there‘s a whole lot more to the city. When I look at the city I see a myriad of cultures successfully holding their own without stepping on the toes of any of the others. From shopping at Commercial Street, Brigade Road and the like to well…doing the exact same thing at K.R. Market, Chikpet and Balepet. From raving about the cutlets at Koshy‘s to frequenting the multitude of tea stalls at Shivajinagar. From being enlightened at the museums and the planetarium to trying your hand at laser tag and paintballing at Sarjapur. From headbanging at concerts at Palace Orchards to attending Kannada plays at Ranga Shankara – Bangalore has a lot to offer and Bangaloreans make the most of it. Bangalore is one of those cities that not only lets you be yourself but also appreciates you for it. It goes out of its way to accommodate everyone‘s interests in a seamless manner. It lets you leave your mark on its culture while giving you the opportunity to imbibe some of the pre-existent culture. Though the people of the city are slowly transitioning to a more hectic lifestyle, Bangalore as a city tries to hold on to its original tranquillity. Amidst the hustle and bustle of everyday life, the city is still as laid back as ever, inviting you to take a break from your busy schedule and take a walk in one of the many parks or down one of the quiet little bylanes that promise to make your worries disappear… even if just for a little while. The Tail of a Rotaractor ―Hey you! Can I have a word with you?‖ A huge guy called me over to a table filled with papers, basically registration forms. I went over (well, only because I was scared of the huge guy!) and all of a sudden I was flocked by 3-4 guys and a pleasant looking girl, all talking to me about joining some club. ‗ROTARACT ROTORACT‘ and ‗PARTY PARTY‘ are all that I could hear. I didn‘t really pay attention to the rest of what they were saying as I was scared. Well I was a fresher then and I just didn‘t

want to get ragged, and these were seniors, who had managed to surround me, and there was a huge guy there too, who could crush me faster than a bulldozer can crush a coke can! (And the look on his face was grim too!) Without further ado, I went ahead and signed up for the club- The Rotaract Club of Manipal (which I will refer to as RC-Manipal henceforth). Little did I know that I was signing up for the 100th Rotaract Club of the world, and I had absolutely no idea that I was now going to be a part of one of the largest youth organizations in the world…. The Rotaract wasn‘t something new that I had heard of. Dad was a member of the Rotary and my sister was being lured in to be a part of, and hence form (or rather re-form) a Rotaract club belonging to that Rotary, which as a matter of fact, now stands as The Rotaract Club of Bangalore, Indiranagar. To add, from going around and listening to the seniors, I learnt that RC-Manipal was in fact one of the ‗it‘ clubs of Manipal to be in, so I went ahead and became active in the club. The events that the club had in order to raise funds for community service (the very basic role of the Rotaract), were in fact events that people looked forward to the whole year in Manipal, and mind you, these events are etched down in my memory, right down to the last word. However, I can‘t pen down everything here, as you see, I could have a book published about my experiences in the Rotaract, which could then go public, and I would then have to sit down signing a lot of cheques to settle legal matters, for making references (and not making references) to a lot of people and clubs. Yes, even Mark Zuckerberg did not know what he would have to deal with when he made Facebook, so I‘m not taking any chances! Well let me summarize my experiences in RC-Manipal, and for that I can actually term Russell Peters here. It was mind-BLASTING! I remember being a DJ. Yes, if you can play music out of a laptop, loud! You are a DJ my friend!!! For many events (I would not call it parties, as you see, they were events) for RCManipal. Little did I know, that a particular incident which had occurred on my first Rotaract event, Freshie‘s Day Out (you may not think so, but I think the name is super cool!!!!), thanks to two of my seniors, who went on to become two very close friends of mine (FYI, even the huge man is now), was in fact used by them as a surprise event for the entertainment of our guests. Now what that incident was, I would never say, even if I would be hung upside down and threatened to death! Apart from this very significant occurrence, I can remember pool parties, beach side parties, cricket matches, snooker competitions, visits to breathtaking

places, fundraisers and a host of other things all thanks to the Rotaract. I still remember how beautiful girls, dressed in all traditional glory, which made them look even more beautiful, would walk up to me, once a year (well, obviously they were different and very attractive women every year) and ask me if I could teach them dandiya. If you are wondering why this event would occur only once a year, and from where dandiya came in to the picture??? Well, we at RC-Manipal used to organize the Garba once a year, which is still our signature event and something people used to look forward to all year round. And trust me, all those sleepless nights of hard work were all worth it, just looking at all the colourful people and their happy faces. And of course, I‘d have my hands crushed by the end of that night, teaching those beautiful women, which I would also say – Totally worth it!!! But to be honest what made it all the more worthwhile was, we as students giving a donation of more than Rs. 1 lakh a year, to people who valued our help. And what we get back in return? Seeing the eyes of those people light up and being able to bring a little happiness on their worry and hardship stricken eyes, that is a feeling you can‘t just describe, but is something best experienced. But to summarize it, RC-Manipal gave me the best 4 years of my Engineering life. I know engineering is 4 years long too, but what can I do if the Rotaract made all those 4 years fun for me??? Now run along and don‘t be jealous! And then I moved back home, to Bangalore. It is rather ironical, but what I called home, was in fact completely a new place to me, with new faces and new places to go, which were not there when I left. I felt rather lost and a little deserted, as apart from my family, the people I called friends were in all different cities (and feeling the same way as I did!). On Dad‘s advice, I joined the Rotaract Club of Bangalore, Indiranagar (RCBI as I will refer to it from now on); as he thought that it would be a nice avenue for me to meet people from my age group. And man was he right! Not only did I come to know people from the club, but also from all the other clubs in Bangalore. And thanks to RCBI, I must say, Bangalore felt like what Bangalore is, to me. The Rotaract network is huge I tell you! Bowling competitions, football matches, community projects, youth exchange programs, travelling to other places, motorcycle rides, college fests (yes I‘m out of college and attended a college fest, and had a superb time too!) and so many other memorable things! And some things that are off the record and I can‘t mention in here (oh come on! You know what I‘m talking about, you all have done these things too), or else our bigger and older Rotarians will ask us for some explanations (hey! Come on, they obviously

know and have more fun than us, but it‘s just a thing unspoken and unheard of, if I can say that!). In all, there were the moments and there were the events, and there were more moments, and there were more events. And there will be more moments and more events, and even more moments, and even more events. What I am trying to say is, the Rotaract network is continuously growing, more clubs are being formed, and more events are being held each year. But what remains important, to you and me as people, is the friends that we made and will make thanks to the Rotaract, the times that we had and will have together. These are things that make us who we are; it completes you as a person. You may not realize this, but I did while I wrote this. The Rotaract, as a movement, has played a very significant role in making me who I am, and I must say I am proud to be what it has made of me. This you may say is the Tail of the Rotaract. And mind you, this tail grows longer and longer as the days pass by, and will always be a part of our lives…………

5. Description of the city

Puducherry is a Union Territory of India. It is a former French colony, consisting of four non-contiguous enclaves, or districts, and named for the largest,Pondicherry. In September 2006, the territory changed its official name fromPondicherry to the vernacular original, Puducherry, which means "New village" in the Tamil language. The territory is called (Putuccēri) or (Pāṇṭiccēri) in Tamil, or

"Pondichéry" in French. It is also known as The French Riviera of the East (La Côte d'Azur de l'Est). Government and administration: Puducherry is a Union Territory of India, not a separate State, which implies that the governance and administration of the territory falls directly under the federal authority in New Delhi. However, along with Delhi, Puducherry is one of the two union territories in India, which is entitled by special constitutional amendments to have an elected legislative assembly and a cabinet of ministers, thereby enjoying partial statehood powers. Under the special provision, the government is permitted to make laws with respect to specific matters. In many cases, such legislations may require the ratification from the federal government or the assent of the President of India. The Centre is represented by the Lt. Governor, who resides at the Raj Nivas (Le Palais du Gouverneur) at the Park, the former palace of the French Governor. The Central government is more directly involved in the financial well-being of the territory, as against the states where financial administration, given a budgeted central grant is the responsibility to the state governments. Consequently, Puducherry has at various times, enjoyed lower taxes, especially in the indirect category. Places to visit:

6. Free Article on Rotaract (100 words- 400 words): Rotaract originally began as a Rotary International youth programme in 1968 and has now grown into a major Rotary-sponsored organisation of over 8,200 clubs spread around the world and 195,000 + members. [1] It is a service, leadership and community service organisation for young men and women between the ages 18–30. Rotaract focuses on the development of young adults as leaders in their communities and workplaces. Clubs around the world also take part in international service projects, in a global effort to bring peace and international understanding to the world. [2] "Rotaract" stands for "Rotary in Action", [3] although the name originally comes from a combination of "Rotary" and "Interact" (International + Action), the high school level programme created by Rotary International in 1962.[4] Most Rotaract activities take place at the club level. Rotaract clubs hold formal meetings, usually every two weeks, which feature speakers, special outings, social activities, discussions or visits to other clubs. Club members get together on designated days for service project work, social events, or professional/leadership development workshops. [5] [6] The purpose of Rotaract is to provide an opportunity for young men and women to enhance the knowledge and skills that will assist them in personal development, to address the physical and social needs of their communities, and to promote better relations between all people worldwide through a framework of friendship and service. [7] To be eligible for membership, prospective members must be 18–30 years of age, show that they are committed to Rotaract, and show that they are of good standing in the community. After being approved by the club, prospective members are 'inducted' to become members, also known as 'Rotaractors'. Clubs generally charge a small annual membership fee to cover costs Rotaract is a Rotary-sponsored service club for young men and women ages 18 to 30. Rotaract clubs are either community or university based, and they‘re sponsored by a local

Rotary club. This makes them true "partners in service" and key members of the family of Rotary. As one of Rotary‘s most significant and fastest-growing service programs, with more than 8,400 clubs in about 170 countries and geographical areas, Rotaract has become a worldwide phenomenon.

III Rotaract Club of Mumbai Greencity- R.I.D 3140
Club Activities- The Rotaract Club of Mumbai Greencity was chartered on 10th August, 2009 under the Rotary Club of Mumbai Greencity. Now in its third year, the club has conducted various activities in the different avenues of club service, community service, professional development and international service. We have conducted projects like The Amazing Race Rotaract in which rotaractors as well as outsiders participated in teams of two‘s and travelled across Mumbai in search of clues and performed tasks. We conducted School’s Out! in which we conducted Literary Arts, Performing Arts and Fine Arts workshops for students of the age group of 12-14 years. We have held Planting Smiles, in which we went to an orphanage for girls and taught them about the art of Bonsai plants and then sold them at a fund raiser, the money was donated to the orphanage. Along with our Rotary, The Rotary Club of Mumbai Greencity, we conduct The Greencity Car Treasure Hunt to raise money for a check dam project. At the club level, we conduct various fellowship programs for our members to interact and workshops on various topics which help us learn more. At the district level, we have also been a part of Rotaract Entertainment Destination, where our entire district comes together and participates according to the zones in events of Performing

Arts, Literary Arts and Fine Arts; World Responsible Youth Week, where rotaractors from the entire district perform street plays and spread the message of Education amongst people. At our district, we were awarded the Best Upcoming Club Award and ranked 11th at the District level. Incoming Projects- We plan to hold a drawing competition for 400-500 children of NGO‘s. We are also looking at conducting The Amazing Race Rotaract in the coming month. We plan to conduct Rotaract Champions Trophy which is an under-19 football knockout competition. Green The Globe is another initiative that we plan to conduct in which we plant saplings and spread awareness to school children and also amongst villagers about the need for a Green Environment. We continue to have various fellowship activities for member bonding. This year we plan to hold The Greencity Car Treasure Hunt again with our Rotary and help another cause.

About Mumbai- Mumbai formerly known as Bombay is the capital of the Indian state of Maharashtra. It is the most populous city in India, and the fifth most populous city in the world, with a population of approximately 12.5 million. It‘s called the city that never sleeps. Mumbai is the commercial and entertainment capital of India, it is also the world's top 10 centres of commerce in terms of global financial flow and accounting. Mumbai is home to important financial institutions such as the Reserve Bank of India, the Bombay Stock Exchange, the National Stock Exchange of India, the SEBI and the corporate headquarters of numerous Indian companies and multinational corporations. The city also houses

India's biggest film fraternity Bollywood, with most of the famous actors like Amitabh Bhachchan, Shah Rukh Khan , Aishwariya Rai Bachchan, etc residing in the city. The city offers a cosmopolitan and diverse lifestyle with a variety of food, entertainment and night life, available in a form and abundance comparable to that in other world capitals. Mumbai's history as a major trading centre has led to a diverse range of cultures, religions and cuisines coexisting in the city. This unique blend of cultures is due to the migration of people from all over India since the British period. Mumbai being so diverse celebrates various festivals like Diwali- The festival or fire crackers, Holi-The festival of color, Eid, Ramzan, Gudi padwa etc from all religions.

On Rotaract- All things at Rotaract begin at Grass-root level, with members addressing their local and societal needs through a framework of ―Friendship and service‖. The purpose of

rotaract is to enhance knowledge and skills that will assist the ―Rotractors‖ in their own professional development, to address the social needs of the society through a large chain promoting friendship and oneness. Rotaract is thus a worldwide phenomenon, a movement a joint effort to make a difference & to be the difference. Rotaract as an organization is giving a platform and recognition to a lot of youngsters to showcase their talent and get the experience of working in a professional environment. The Mini-B school as it is called, gives a lot of learning that is required while working in an organisation. I have found Rotaract to be an excellent opportunity for networking beyond academia, not only with local professionals and community leaders but also at the global level with Rotaractors around the globe. This in turn has helped us know more about the various cultures and communities worldwide. Rotaract has made it easy to benefit both the local and international communities and to aid the professional development of our members.

V Rotaract Club of Victoria
RI 4130
Article on club activities (200- 500 words) & 3 photo of club in Action.
This year, the Rotaract Club Victoria made international activities, professional development and of course: community service projects. You know, it is almost impossible to summarize 1 year of activities in less than 500 words, and it gets worse if that year passed making something you love and enjoy. So this time I‘m only going to talk about 3 activities we did. The first days of July a hurricane affected our community, so we collected food and cleaning supplies, so we can give it to the people who need it. For the members and guests to continue learning about Rotaract, we made the second camp, which was called "Rotacamp 2" it consist in leaving the city for a weekend and going to a quiet place surrounded by nature, with speakers who give us talks about the history of Rotaract, leadership in our community and making integration activities so make a strong friendship between us. At the end of the Rotary year we did an activity called "Fulfilling the Dream" which consisted in ask to children with cancer "what do you want to do when you grow up?" because unfortunately not all reach adulthood. Then, we contact people who develop these professions and the children spend a day with them. In addition to inaugurate this stage of fulfilling dreams, there was a massive event in which they released white balloons into the air in memory of children who died in this battle against cancer.

Incoming projects & program of Club.
This year our club will celebrate its 25th anniversary! So we are so happy and got a lot of plans! This are the big ones: As you know, our country is sadly the number 1 in children obesity of the world, so we are going to be the example for the kids in our town, making a challenge between members and guests, so we are all fitness.

Also we are planning to do a ―Football Town Cup‖ in male and female edition, so everybody can be in activity in a cool way. We have a kinder garden school, so we will keep on helping it with thing they need. We also are going to make the ‖Rotacamp 3‖, because for us, the quality in the members is essential, and with this activity we can make our friendship stronger and at the same time learn more about Rotary and Rotaract. As you all know, the world is dying for the pollution we all made, so we are going to start a recycling campaign, asking people to separate paper, plastics, aluminum, cardboard and copper, so we can sell it to factories, so they can use it again and the club can also make some money to make other activities. As I already told you, we are 25 years in community service this year, so we are planning to make a monument in a principal avenue of the town, so we can make a tribute to our founders, and past presidents, because the club is still working because of the good work made by them.

Rotaract Club of Naogaon
RID-3280 ROTARACT FOR BEAUTIFUL DREAM!!
Give and take is one of the dealing concepts now-a-days. We are in danger with Eve teasing, Wine & drugs, Cyber crime etc. Youth are involving themselves because of their plenty of time, lack of awareness. It is undoubtedly true that the wrong path is always attractive. There is no sufficient guideline for them who want to choose their way of life. Youth are victim of social crime by the surroundings! Parents pray for their follower‘s best success. But how they can be a complete man without spiritual value? They are taught- read, read and only read. As a result they consider to read attentively is the only one duty of student life. If we overlook co-curricular activities how our future generation will be patriotic, dedicated, efficient and updated. Like the bee, gathering honey from the different flowers, a Rotaractor accepts the essence of the different scriptures and sees only the good in all religions. Just think about life. It's a fight, but you will win. It's a struggle, but you can make it. You‘re in a race, but you can finish. It might be uphill, but God will strengthen your legs. Your swimming upstream, but God will strengthen your arms. You‘re fighting an enemy that you can't see, but God will give you His vision. You‘re in the ring with your enemy, but you will knock him out. You are unsettled now, but you will have His peace! YOU WIN! Any fool can criticize, condemn and complain but it takes character and self control to be understanding and forgiving. Treat everyone you meet as if they are the most important person in the world—because they are if not to you, then to someone; if not today, then perhaps tomorrow. People think Rotaract means a youth who spoils his time unnecessarily! Really, most of the people who have no concrete idea about Rotary movement they think so. In the passing days we are looking that growing young are destroying their leisure time by doing unnecessary works or involving such a type of works what are harmful for his future as well as to the society. They are taking drugs, committing crime, making eve teasing; don‘t pay respect to the elders. On the other hand in a Rotary movement one can get opportunity to build up his character in worldly and get ready for spiritual life with a great theme ‗Service above self‘. It is a great medium to grow world brotherhood and fellowship. One Rotaractor

can not take drugs, bribe and weapons for harmful activities. He is religious and peaceful in order to obey the Rotaract purpose. Wise says ‗Don't always get mad if you don't get what you want, but try to be happy with what you have. If you have patient, then the future will bring joy, happiness, love and lots of surprises‘. God may not give you what you think, you need; He is going to provide you with what he knows you need. He will provide for you according to His will and plan for you. We hunker after money to fulfill our worldly demand. Cry for that reason a lot. But make sure don‘t cry for the same reason. You can close your eyes with the things you don‘t want to see, but you can never close your heart with the things you don‘t want to feel. It should keep in our memory we the solvent people (physically, economically & mentally) have to do some for those who are regarded as not fulfilled. Count your blessings. Once you realize how valuable you are and how much you have going for you, the smiles will return, the sun will break out, the music will play and you will finally be able to move forward the life that God intended for you with grace, strength, courage and confidence. Try to remember, your entire primary mate did not come to read at secondary level, the entire secondary mate did not pass the SSC exam and did not get opportunity to read at college level as well as the college mates did not continue their learning due to poverty. You are doing graduation or completed. Who bears your expanses? Certainly you will answer, ―The government‖. But the government gets money from where? People of lower class (basically who lives under the poverty level), whose children do not go to educational institute, they give the larger portion of these money. How we can pay our responsibility to them? Then I‘ll say, ―With Rotaract Club‖. Because Rotary is a great movement, where service to people is being taught! And it is believed that one volunteer can not involve in harmful activities. So, earning money should not be only goal of human life. Man should shake for mankind. I always say that- ‗A volunteer can not be a bad citizen‘. And every Rotaractor is a complete volunteer! Awesome day in Rotaract Club! Shout Rotaract for beautiful dream! Writer: Rtr.

Rtr. Zubaibul Islam sobuj About Chittagong Chittagong is the second largest city in Bangladesh. It is the Commercial Capital City of Bangladesh. The surrounding mountains and rivers make the city attractive. Karnaphuli River falls in Chittagong. The largest sea port of the country, "Chittagong Port", situated in Chittagong. That's why Chittagong is the city for export and import. Most of the large industries of Bangladesh are situated in Chittagong. The city of Chittagong is a major tourist attraction in Bangladesh. It‘s an ideal vacation spot. Its green hills and forests, its broad sandy beaches and its fine cool climate always attract the holiday-makers. Described by the Chinese traveler poet, Huen Tsang (7th century A D) as "a sleeping beauty emerging from mists and water" and given the title of "Porto Grande" by the 16th both the descriptions even today. It combines the busy hum of an active seaport with the soothing quiet of a charming hill town. Chittagong is filled with dense green forests, endless rolling hills, a moderate climate and breathtaking beaches. Since the 7th century, Chittagong has been mentioned in many documents as a seaport of mystical beauty and magnificent charm. The bustling harbor stands in stark contrast to the tranquility and peaceful surroundings of the city. Rtr. Zubaibul Islam sobuj
