Bus service

     We started to provide bus services in the are of Mangalore. Asbtgere are already many busses running in the area of Mangalore. I think it is a best service compared to other servies. Because it helps various people to travel from one place to another place. But the thing is there are many competitors who are in the field and providing good services. Now, we have to give a healthy competition to them and earn good profit.

        We can make the generalisation that, Bus service is one of the most important service in India. It involves time management, because it is the duty of the bus driver to reach the specific place at specified time. Then if any aaccident happens, the hospital facilities should be provided to passengers as well as drivers and conductors.
              According to my experience, there is no good service providers in the sectors of bus service. Sometimes cleaners may not come for job, and sometimes driver will be late.

      After sometimes if our idea workouts, then we are also planning to expand the business to a high level and by this we can generate more employment opportunities to the people.

           The consequences of the assumption is, As the existing bus service is not so good,if we provide good service then we can attract more number of customers. By  adding more benefits and facilities to the customers, we can retain the customers. Facilities and benefits such as C.R( Compensation Rate) and pass etc. And our service is more beneficial to the students and employees who travel daily.

                 So , there must be healthy competition between the competitor's. We should provide good services to the customers and should give more importance to retain those customers.

HR professional service

  We provide services to the workers who work in factories, Industries and in companies.They can come to us if they have any problem of stress or any mental illness. The HR Professionals will council them and give them solutions which is for less fees.

*The alternative ways of looking at this is, we also provide this services by going to particular organization. We are also planning to provide this service to the higher level people such as managers,executives.And giving them CD's and books , so that they can read and feel relax.

* strengths are, we solve the problem of people, they get satisfaction. Weakness is we may have to recruit more HR Professionals who are good in counselling, but we may require huge amount of moneyg to hire them.

* It is necessary, because if the people work in stress or from mental illness, then it effects their work as well as their life. So to overcome this problem we introduced out services.The workers are the most beneficiaries of this service.

Advantages of tabla

* Effective playing tabla is important to communicate with the people and share our knowledge, ideas.

* I saw some people who are effective playing tabla. They have good hand grip, required information or the knowledge. And they say that If you practice, you can also make a mastery on effective speaking.

* The evidence is like, I have got many information from the people, google search, youtub videos. people tell about their own experiences and I think it helps to develop my playing tabla knowledge.

* It can be refuted after I practice, because if I get the expected result then we can agree the facts what the people have given to us. If we do not get the proper result, then we can refute against their statement.
          

About practicing tabla

* I made a assumption on the basis of what I have heard from my friends, relatives, my brother, teachers, and from my well wishers. They tell that practice is important.

* I can verify it by giving an example, It is true because if I have not practiced for the exam, I may have failed in the exam. So I believe that practice make a person perfect. without practice person not achive the goal.

* If I don't have a effective playing tabla skill, nobody listen to me and I may not be attracted by a single person.

* We can assume that every person is interested to give a effective talk and they must try instead simply assuming.
 

My favourate music instrument


* About the topic "History of Tabla & Tabla Artist" what we already know is everybody see tabla music but only some people (Learining tabla) know the History of tabla. tabla also include more than 300 talas.

* It also relates to the discussion, because play tabla helps person to improve his extra cultural activities.

* I state it because I have make a note of some effective tabla artist who inspired me by their effective playing tabla.

* For Example : On 28-12-2013 I attend NATIONALWORKSHOP on DEVELOPMENT OF HINDUSTANI MUSIC IN THE WEST COAST OF INDIA I was very much attracted to that person ( Shantanu Shukla) because his playing tabla was very effective and marvellous. It was a wonderful experience and if I practice more I can also become an effective player like him.
