Productivity at its best: College MUNs


Technically considered the highest level of public speaking and writing at the university level today, the MUNs, also holds the credit of being one of the most enthusiastic and happening social meet ups for the top intellectuals of the nation. 
No doubt, after having been through the rigorous debating tactics for at least a couple of days, and the serious competitiveness in air, MUNs do offer the college students a perfect bench for self check and re evaluating their current diplomatic stand, a very essential for a sustainable future of the country. 
At the current time, MUNs have not merely been a competitive assessment, or a mock session for hypothetical assumptions and historic agendas. It has become a passion, a passion to seek solution of any hurdle placed before the community. 
Participation in MUNs has increased over the time, which is directly proportional to the increased number of College MUNs in the country. Because of its effectiveness and impact, almost any top notch institute in the country holds the notion of replicating a brilliant conference in their banner. 
This has resulted in a competition amongst the organizers which in turn has led to a very much improved standards of the organization and execution, making the options available to the delegates and press members to choose for.
Today, here we stand, where College MUNs can be considered beholding a Golden Age. We are not at the initial armature phase, not at the threshold exhaustive phase. We are at the most productive phase.


PS: For those who, who are not yet acquainted with the concept of MUNs, it stands for Model United Nations, where students mock the functioning of United Nations and debate on the current or significant international issues.

  1. Hi Amlan!
    Pretty cool blog you've got here. :)
    Oh, and I agree, some of my friends are so passionate about MUNs andd swear by them. I don't find them that alluring, but they certainly have their own charm.

A Note To My Abandoned Blog!

I have been writing for over a decade now. In 2012, I started a blog and went on to garner a lakh page views by 2015. Social media wasn’t as big then as to what it is now, the internet wasn’t a necessity, but rather an accessory and attention span surely was more than what we have today. So I believe I can get a little pat on my back for what I achieved.   Come 2016, my blog reached the 200k mark, and then like the abandoned Paper Factory in Jagiroad, Assam, I abandoned my blog. I did write a couple of pieces up until 2021, but that was probably the flickering flame of a dying lamp.   So, did I stop writing after 2016? Hell no, in fact, I have been writing an unimaginable volume of work. From academic papers, news stories, features for magazines, websites, academic papers, dissertations, press releases, scripts, concept notes and my favourite pass time, emails, I have been churning out words after words .  But what I absolutely stopped doing is, writing for myself. Personal writing a

Wish I could 'FLIRT'

I was in class VII, when I first came across the word ‘flirting’. (This apparently proves my weakness in vocabulary). Anyways, it was my friend Jyotirmoy who was talking about him flirting with a girl. As usual, an innocent me, asked, “ এই flirting মানে কি? ” Which apparently meant, ‘What does flirting mean? What an apt description he gave, he said, it is an act of conveying someone that you love him/her verbally, though you hold no feelings for him/her by heart. Mind it, class VII we were, and we were already discussing how to fake love. That was good old 7 years back, in a phase of time, where at least love was not merely a matter of one night stand. Over the time, Jyotirmoy did excel in the art of flirting on screen, no wonder, he is yet to score a girl, but he has surely excelled. This is an art, an art probably all of the cool dude modern guys surely have good hands on. But what I am more concerned about is actually described in the last part of the last line of th

Nostalgia, Life and Growing Up

One of the greatest fears one can have is to be a stranger to someone or a place, that was once very close to you. Often in our lives, we cross paths with so many places and people, that for a period they become an integral part of our lives. While some remain with us forever, others are as good as strangers.   We often walk into places knowing it’s temporary, yet when we move out, pain engulfs us knowing that things will never be the same again.   One of the biggest fallacies in our 20s is that we often claim a space, area or city to be our own. As a university student, your life revolves around the campus and everything in and around the campus becomes the comfort zone that we reside in. Every second person is a familiar face, and your sense of belonging is rooted around them. But just in a matter of few years, everything changes, and the most known place of yours becomes as good as the new city which you moved in, completely unknown. (This of course is not true for everyone)   I
