Subodh Kumar Jaiswal narrates journey of his life from Sindri to Director General of Police

Chandigarh, September 26, 2019: Today students of Panjab University were obliged to have Subodh Kumar Jaiswal, Director General of police, Maharashtra, amongst us.

He is an alum of UBS and was earlier the commissioner of police, Brihan Mumbai. He is also been additional secretary with Research and Analysis wing (RA&W), an external intelligence agency for nine years. In all, he has an experience of over 34 years in the Police Department.

He started on a very humble note by recalling his college days here at UBS. He narrated the journey of his life from Sindri, a district of Dhanbad, to the Director General of Police. As per him, "Knowledge gives us humility". This line is so simple yet so deep that at times we fail to realise its importance.

The learning that we got from his words of wisdom were "A person must have a) Integrity. b) Professionalism c) Desire to excel. If you don't set an example, you cannot be a leader. You should excel in whatever you do in order to achieve success".

One of the most important things for a B-school is to learn networking. Mr. Jaiswal enlightened us that real networking is to cherish friendship and make good friends, something that people involved in competition often forget.

Him being a voracious reader was quite evident from his diverse knowledge which as per him helps in the long run. In a nutshell, it was an interactive session in which he not only shared this knowledge and wisdom but also his plethora of experience.
