 E. SREEDHARAN
Still on the fast lane
He has achieved several benchmarks and has several feathers in his crowns. But such recognitions can never be enough to describe this man whose vision is limitless. We are talking about the seventy-one years young Metro Man – E. Sreedharan. He changed the face of Delhi by giving it a high tech touch of metro but what many of us today don’t remember is the hurdles that he has to face at that point of time from the so called social care takers. Palpable from his earlier performance, nothing can bog down this buoyant man and hats off to his dare-devil attitude, Delhi has its Metro today. “He’s a man whose contributions have always been overshadowed. I being in the retail & real estate industry know that whenever he chalked out a metro expansion plan, he came out with an optimum solution of not disturbing existing infrastructure,” feels Lalit Kumar, CEO & Director of Ebony Retail.
It’s not Lalit Kumar alone, several others of his ilk, who know Sreedharan agrees that he is a man of action and modest enough to create a project that benefits all. Bucked up with such a mission he want’s to do more for the Indian masses. Well, his track records says that no chains can arrest his dreams.

 KAMLESH SHARMA
The change agent
The person who has completely changed the way Indian diplomats used to work is in no mood to leave any stone unturned. His aim – to ensure the success of the upcoming Commonwealth Games in New Delhi in the year 2010. As the Secretary General, Commonwealth Games, Kamlesh Sharma has now a point to prove – the trust shown by the leaders of 53 countries and he definitely will.
“I will do so with confidence and enthusiasm,” says Sharma. And, no doubt, he can turn out to be a strong force in order to make upcoming Commonwealth Games a success and prove those wrong, who were earlier quacking doubts on India’s potential to organise Commonwealth Games. “It is an honour and privilege to serve this great institution,” adds Sharma. The efforts of Chief Minister Sheila Dixit to transform Delhi into Paris with luxurious residential complexes, wide & clean roads, Metro and glittering shopping malls is based on one single dream – to make Commonwealth Games a success and if this dream comes true, Kamlesh Sharma will deserve quite a few accolades.
