Manly feel and lots of things to assemble and disassemble gives you a lot of freedom to create something for your happiness.

Even after doing engineering from such a reputable college in North India and learning more about mechanical than my father, I was constantly intrigued by his style of working.

An MBA college, famous for its supply chain domain, and located near Powai. Since the day I entered this college, people have tried almost everything to just remember my name, but they are not able to. Because to them, all Sardars look same!!!!  OMG!! Maninder has become "Manvinder", "Manpreet", "Mandeep", "Manmeet", "Saardar" and many more after entering NITIE. And my reaction is WOW!! Only this was left after Santa Banta, 12 bje wala Sardar joke and a lot. So this was my first reaction when I came to NITIE.
