GIS/NE Award &Recognition
As the GIS/NE group developed this application and established services to both BSS/OSS, the good message spread across the world like wild fire. We started receiving congratulatory messages from our well wishers, service providers, Ministry of Communication and from Ministry of Science &Technology. Rather I had the privilege to have one to one meeting with the Union Minister Mr Kapil Sibal and obtained his best wishes.
The group had the honor to make two important milestones in Digital Technology - developing digital map of India from satellite imagery that too having 1M resolution data for the important cities & towns of India and innovatively developing an application for cable cut management, thereby reducing the communication break down time with quick restoration efforts. To recognize the company &the team, world GIS forum led by ESRI presented Reliance two awards at San Diego in August,'03.
Going to that award ceremony is a different story! As the working level management did not realize the values of those awards, told me to depute only the working team to USA, which I did. At that time none of us were knowing that even MDA was personally invited to grace the occasion. After a few days of that invite, he called me to his cabin and requested me to represent him also &convey his thanks message to Dr Jack Dangermond, President & CEO of ESRI. When I expressed to him that I am not going, he was shocked &questioned me! When I explained to him the back ground, he took the phone, instructed the concerned that Ramu should go as honor representing Reliance as well as MDA. That made the team complete and we proceeded. Rather me, Milind and Jaydip enjoyed the round trip halting at France (while returning)to spend few days with my sister Dr Viji and went round Paris site seeing. Next comes the big story -turn &rise in life
