Essentials for Group Discussion

As the results of most of the MBA entrance exams are nearing, the GD/PI fever is taking its toll. So here is a nice read on essentials of Gd/PI

Group Discussion is an important criteria of the selection process in admission in IIMs and other MBA Institutes. The Judging Panel typically looks out for candidates who are outgoing and smart. During the GD, the panel members essentially evaluate the candidate's potential to be a leader and his/her ability to work as a team member. It is not a very easy task to stand out from a group of ten to twenty candidates. You are being assessed for your team behavior. You cannot win by either being a mute witness to the action or by being very aggressive. While doing the right things can allow you to become a valuable member of the group, doing the wrong things can cause you to disrupt the discussion, and you may find yourself alienated from the other members.

GD/PI topic : Rise of regional political parties is a threat to the unity of India.

Regionalism has remained perhaps the most potent force in Indian politics.
It has remained the main basis of many regional political parties which have been governing many states since the late 1960s.

The National Democratic Alliance (NDA) government led by the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), which ruled at the central level from 1999 to 2004, was but a medley of various region-based parties

Argument in favour: Regional parties encourages an identity on basis of language,culture,tribes and fuels a sense of regional deprivation among the people.

Argument against it:Regional parties provide a political system which is accommodative of timely meeting the demands of the regions.
