JOURNEY OF MY LIFE: LIFE : It begins with dreams that drive someone to work hard with commitment. This has so far happened in my personal and professional life. I did not dream of becoming a professor in a Central University as well as a National University. I did not dream of becoming an Oxford University Press (OUP) author. Having started my career as a government approved Tourist Guide in the early 1990s with the primary primary job of receiving receiving guests, explaining about about the places of interest, taking care of their comfortable stay, and finally, sending them back happy, I entered the world of teaching and research on the issues of travel and tourism in 1996. CHILDHOOD: CHILDHOOD: It was an eventful experience experience in childhood childhood starting from fishing, swimming, cycling, climbing trees to playing kabadi, kho-kho, cricket and hide-and-seek in the banyan and Jamun trees. I used to play with my three cousin brothers: Manoj, now a young entrepreneur in the Air Conditioning Conditioning business, business, Lalatendu, Lalatendu, presently presently a qualified qualified and and trained high school teacher, and Lalitendu, currently a promising teacher-cum-trainer in Hotel and Catering Management. I also used to play along with my cousin sister Chhabi, presently a successful homemaker. My own maternal uncle’s house and the house of my cousin brothers’ maternal uncle were two preferred places where I used to play and enjoy with Dilip, my long-time friend, now working as Assistant Professor in English. It is the culture of the joint family that has taught me three things: LOVE, SACRIFICE AND SHARING. These three symbols of value have influenced and shaped my personality. CHILDHOOD FRIENDS: Pradip (Chagala), is presently working as Post- master master and Susanta, Susanta, presently worki working ng as a High School Headmaster. All three of us used to catch fish by traditional methods.

MY COLLEGE FRIENDS: From Kendrapada College to Vani Vihar (Utkal University), Prasant Mallick, Animesh Roul and Hrudanand Rath, all three were a pleasure to be with. While Prasant and Animesh went to Jawaharlal Nehru University, New Delhi for further studies and thereafter settled in their respective careers, Hrudanand teaches college-level Economics in Odisha. SURVIVED TO SERVE: I was rescued from my paternal grandfather’s house gutted by fire in one evening when I was about three months old. People in my village declared me dead dead after they recovered me from a village fishing pond. I had a fatal injury after falling down from a running stone-loaded truck at the age age of 10. 10. I was presum presumed ed drowned drowned in the the water when I was attempting to swim in the village pond. I could manage manage to save myself from snake bite. I was critically wounded during the final year of my graduation when I fell into a canal. I am the third child and only surviving child of my parents. My innocent and semi-literate parents lost six children and all of them died within three or four months months of their birth. Hailing from a peasant family located in an inaccessible place in Odisha, I completed completed my primar primary, y, middle and high school in the village village environment. Neither did my parents or my grandparents imagine something different for me nor did I dream of doing things differently. I used to help my grandfather and father in the field and sold vegetables in the market. POVERTY-STRICKEN LIFE: I was witness to the poverty of our joint family. I had to manage the school homework and agricultural work together. My primary and high school education passed in a very haphazard way. My mother insisted that I read books and do my homework, unlike my father who was unmindful unmindful of my my study. I still remember remember the days in the monsoon season when we did not have money to buy daily household articles. DREAM OF MY PARENTS: My father wished me to be with him all the time while while mother mother wished me to pursue pursue higher higher studies and get government jobs. The happiest day that my late father enjoyed was the conferment of PhD degree to me by Utkal University, Odisha. I have had the privilege of receiving the first PhD and D.Litt. degrees in Tourism Tourism from Utkal Utkal University. ROLE MODEL: My late grandfather is Dambarudhar Swain, who was a hardworking and honest marginal farmer. He fought against all odds and adversities to harvest the crops. I have been been inspired inspired by his honesty honesty and sincerity. sincerity. I have learnt learnt 2
two basic philosophies from his life: WORK IS WORSHIP AND DUTY IS GOD.
MY FAMILY: Both me and wife (Puspalata) studied in the same village school. We got married on 2 March, 2000. She was the first girl whom I had liked without seeing and knowing much about her. I conveyed my wishes to my father that I would marry Puspa and the rest is history. God has blessed us with two beautiful daughters: Purbasha (MAMA) and Pratyasha (MEGHANA). They are my two eyes. Both of them are now studying in Kendriya Vidyalaya–I in Bhubaneswar. Purbasha is extremely versatile and has interest in creative writing. Pratyasha is an introvert but committed to her work. HAPPIEST DAY: The day that I received the Book titled “Tourism Principles & Practices” authored by me and Dr. J. M. Mishra, Assistant Professor, Pondicherry University from OUP, New Delhi GRIEF-STRICKEN MORNING: I broke down after hearing the untimely death of my father on 26 September, 2007.

MY RECENT PROFESSIONAL LIFE IN ADMINISTRATION: I have recently embarked on the University Administration with a call of the esteemed Vice-Chancellor Prof. Tejasvi Kattimani to serve as In-charge Registrar. I have Joined as the registrar without having a second thought to it for two important reasons: to make a robust system for better delivery of services and to ensure the functioning of various activities in a very transparent manner. Administration in a typical university system serves the teaching as well as students’ community and helps them bring laurels and honours. A university administrative system can be more efficient to provide desired results and effective in catering diverse needs of its key members. In a conventional sense, administration connects each member on one common thread to understand, help and contribute each other mutually. It is a service center to ensure innovative teaching, learning and research atmosphere, thereby moving towards creation of new knowledge. Being a diehard and hardcore researcher with much flare and interest in actionable research and value-based teaching, I found myself an odd person in a most challenging job. I resumed my work with a little apprehension in the first one week at the office whether to be able to make timely delivery of services or not. First three fateful nights became sleepless for me and disturbed me so frequently and so much that is inexpressible and unutterable. Two interesting questions sparked my mind. First, can the administration be people friendly and people-centric? Second, can people be friendly to the functioning of university administration? It is always win-win to be accountable and productive. LIVING WITH PEOPLE: I have managed to uncover two implicit as well as two explicit problems engulfing the university administration network. Two implicit problems are: Lacking Mutual Trust and Belief and Lacking Interest in Timely Delivery. Two explicit problems are: Expression of Anger and Apathy and Lack of Professionalism. Changing the attitude through continuous dialogue, interface and counseling is the thrust area that we are now focused on. I firmly believe in six important organizational value systems:
SELF-DISCIPLINE MUTUAL RESPECT INTEGRITY TIMELY DELIVERY TEAM WORK ORGANIZATIONAL LOYALTY 5
We are determined to bury and keep behind three key poisons paralyzing the system.
INFIGHTING INDISCIPLINE INDIVIDUAL VESTED INTEREST
SERVING ORGANIZATION LIKE SERVING STUDENTS: Administration was not my core domain to be cheerful and make a career. It was not my areas of interest to think and work seriously. It is rather a mission for me to serve selflessly for all those who are devoted towards their duty and responsibility in raising and nourishing this baby university. A teacher becoming an administrator is like a monk becoming a family man. A teacher is always worried for his/her wards and is committed for building a new generation with healthy and bright mind through powerful teachings. It is perhaps my other facet of life to serve and care for organization as my MOTHER. I find no differences between serving students and serving organizations. Both are the two different works with one principle. A serious teacher never sleeps for his/her students like a serious administrator never compromises with the sincerity and honesty in serving organization. My love and respect for my organization is equally important like the way I respect my parents and elders. I do respect the principles and philosophies of organization, which are our guiding forces to enjoy our professional life. SIMPLIFYING THE COMPLEX PROCESSES: My utmost effort is to reduce hassles and provide easy ways of getting the woks done. Administrative processes are largely complex in nature despite evolution of several theories to understand the complex and dynamic nature of administration. Rules and regulations are governing forces of administration and people acknowledge you when works get done easily and others do criticize with abusive languages when works do not get done as per the rules. Rules make and break friendships. I do believe in interpreting the rules for benefits of masses not for individuals. I stand firmly against the rule breakers and violators. Simplifying the complex processes need tremendous patience and understandings. To me, an individual stands nowhere when interests of organization are given importance.
