INAUGURAL CEREMONY
Exordium the Civil Services Cell of Sri Venkateswara College was founded as a Club in
March 2020 and approved by college on 6th December 2020 with a purpose to fulfil the
need of a society in our University that can guide, motivate and furnish the needs of the
aspirants, provide them with resources and work towards their personality
development. To celebrate this joyous occasion the cell organized its Inauguration on
12th January, 2021.
The ceremony witnessed a gathering of 291 aspirants on Zoom platform and a live
broadcast of the ceremony took place on YouTube simultaneously which saw a constant
number of more than 100 viewers, totalling 738 views.
The Inauguration opened with the cell President, Shivam Ganeshia introducing
Exordium to the students. He followed the history of the cell from its foundation to its
present day stand. He mentioned the true motivation behind the cell and also shared the
experiences of the volunteers with a heart touching video. This graceful moment was
followed by the cell convener, Dr. Vartika Mathur who delivered kind words for the
students of the cell and their dedication.
Our diligent volunteer, Rajdeep Pandey then introduced and welcomed our Guest of
Honour for the evening, Dr. Sanjeev Chopra, Director of LBSNAA.
Dr. Sanjeev Chopra is an IAS officer of the 1985 batch. Originally from Kapurthala,
Punjab, he has served in multiple capacities with the central and state governments in

Lal Bahadur Shastri National Academy of Administration. Immediately prior to this, he
was the Additional Chief Secretary to the Government of West Bengal, in charge of
Industry, Commerce and Enterprises Department and Director General of ATI, Kolkata.
Dr. Chopra addressed the gathering with the wisdom of his words, thanking everyone
for their efforts, congratulating Exordium on the works the cell has been brewing. He
talked about the UPSC exam pattern, on the importance of writing and how critical
thinking is one aspect which always clears the exam.
He introduced a panel of phenomenal IAS Officer Trainees from The Society of Social
Services, who shared their experiences and preparation strategies with the aspirants.
Ms. Pari Bishnoi, completed her graduation from DU (Indraprastha College) and
was ranked 30 in CSE-2019. She advised the aspirants to make full-fledged use of
internet for the preparation.
Mr. Ashish Agrawal is a mechanical engineer (IIT-Kanpur) and worked as a
design engineer in Japan. He talked about why self-study is more important than
coaching.
Mr. Dheeraj Singh is a MBBS doctor from BHU. He emphasized on the need of

Mr. Navneet Sehara has completed his B. Tech from IIT-Bombay. He highlighted
the need of constant revision after completing a portion of the syllabus.
Mr. Yuvraj Seddharth has completed his B. Tech from Indraprastha University.
He stressed upon the dynamic nature of the CSE Examinations and how it is
important to be dynamic ourselves to cope up.
The team of officer trainees also talked about a website, csewiki.org that they have
designed and has ample information to help aspirants of various dimensions.
Dr. Chopra showed his sincerity towards eradication of misconceptions prevalent about
Civil Services and offered his and his team’s full support to Exordium in order to make a
pool of resources for the benefit of the student aspirants. Exordium is working tirelessly
on the collaboration in mutual understanding with Dr. Dheeraj Singh, Nodal Officer of
Society of Social Services.
The Inauguration culminated in a vote of thanks by Ananya Gupta and while guests
were allowed to leave after that, students were kept back for the first ever orientation
session of the Cell.
ORIENTATION SESSION
To familiarise the freshers with the cell’s functioning, Exordium organised an online
Orientation session after the Inauguration, which had a participation of around 250+
students overall. The aim of Orientation was to introduce students to the working and
teams of the Cell and to clear their doubts.
This session was hosted by Retika Kanaujia and Shrestha Khandelwal. They gave a
comprehensive account of the cell, elucidated the different teams and explained the
procedure on how to apply for membership and volunteership of cell.
It was followed up by a Q/A session which was hosted by Shivam Ganeshia, Mahek
Agarwal, and Yogesh Chaddha in which students cleared all their queries regarding the
smallest of issues.
Exordium would like to extend its sincere regards to Dr. Rajendra Phartyal who
provided his assistance throughout the event and without whom this inauguration
ceremony wouldn't have been possible.
The inauguration ceremony as well as the orientation proved to be massive success
coupled with a great turnout of students, a motivating and captivating speech by the
Guest of Honour and the guidance and support given by the panel of officers for further
association. Team Exordium worked very diligently to make this event a success before
vis-a-vis during both the sessions.
