Q-22

Ladies and Gentleman, thank you for being with us on this memorable occasion. There are no celebrities at this function nor any dance routines. The center of attraction for this morning's event is the new ______________ which we are unveiling.

We're going to take you on a small journey. A journey that symbolizes the human spirit of change, the will to question the unquestionable, the drive to stretch the envelope.

Ladies and gentleman, I invite you to join me in this journey of innovation and evolution. The quest to lead and the quest to conquer. It is this quest that led to the first manned flight by the Wright brothers. Today, thousands of aircrafts travel the skies carrying millions of passengers across the globe in safety and comfort. The same quest for leadership and conquering new frontiers led to landing man on the moon, an unheard of and unbelievable achievement at that time.

Innovation and evolution led to the creation of a bicycle which the rider pedaled to move faster than walking. Later, innovation motorized the bicycle to create the motorcycle and the scooter, providing motorized transport for up to two persons. The ENIAC computer in 1945, considered among the highest powered at that time filled an entire room. Today, the power of that huge machine is exceeded in the personal computer that sits on our desks or in fact, that we carry as laptops in our briefcases.

There are solutions for most problems. The barriers and roadblocks that we face are usually of our own making and these can only be demolished by having the determination to find a solution, even contrary to the conventional wisdom that prevails around us, by breaking tradition.

The company was by the Maharaja of Mysore, Nalvadi Krishnaraja Wodeyar in the year 1937 with the sole aim of preparing lacquer for government and other documents. But in 1972, the company established indelible ink unit used for the sole purpose of elections.
The company is currently working overtime to manufacture a whopping 20,140 litres of unique violet ink and dispatch it in the coming weeks to 28 states and seven Union Territories (Uts) in 10 ml (millilitre) plastic bottles of 7.5 cm size.
It is the only company in India authorised to produce the indelible ink, which is used in the elections to prevent people from voting multiple times.


Estimated to cost the exchequer Rs.120 million (Rs.12 crore) for about two million bottles of 10 ml each, the indelible ink accounts for less than one percent of the total budget of Rs.13 billion (Rs.1,300 crore) to be spent by the government to conduct the general elections this time.
