“Lehro se darr kar nauka paar nahi hoti, Koshish karne waalo ki kabhi haar nahi hoti”. 

Devendra Meghwal, a research scholar of Mohanlal Sukhadia University.

He was born and raised in Udaipur. He grew up with a sister and a brother. Devendra did his MBA from Pacific University, Udaipur. His college life was full of fun and excitement, where he spent his initial two years enjoying with his friends. In his last year, Devendra realized that he wasted a lot of time and then started preparing for a placement. He got a job at Apollo technical education as a marketing engineer in PratapGarh.

As a marketing engineer, Devendra used to work in the skill development center, where they used to provide training to dropouts at recreation centers. After working for a substantial period, Devendra enrolled in the Ph.D. program. His pursuit of this course was inspired by the support and motivation offered by his colleagues.  With sheer determination and hard work, Devendra succeeded and got admitted to the MohanLal Sukhadia University (MLSU).

During his time at this university, Devendra got the opportunity to learn several things that enabled him to face other challenges as well in his life. Devendra also participated in the University elections and won. This victory highlighted his qualities as a born leader and politician.

Ever since he was a kid, Devendra was very fond of playing cricket. He believes that it is not just a game and, that it has given him a sense of authority and strength.  Even during the times when he was not doing financially well, Devendra did not give up and pursued off jobs in order to make a living. He used to serve water at the stadium to all the players and members including, the audience, as per the instruction of his friend whom he considered as his elder brother.  This is how he got the opportunity to play professionally and ultimately became the captain of the team. Playing cricket has been a learning experience for Devendra. His journey from an extra player to the captain taught him a great lesson to work hard to achieve the needful as his life mantra. 

Devendra firmly believes that no one is born great. One can become great by his efforts and strong will power. To achieve greater heights in life, it is extremely important to stay dedicated and pursue the goal of life with utmost zeal and determination. This is what he advises the younger generation, to stay focused and not give up. Face the challenges and rise above them to avail your destiny.
