Life  in Cite  Campus  can  be  a  boon  for  residents   and  there  are  umpteen  avenues  for entertainment, outdoor activities  and extra curricular  activities  for  all  who  aspire  to  achieve  greater  heights  in life though one  should be  prepared  to  face critics  and  enemies  stoically  and logically when  needed  too

Little  did  I  realize  that  there  can  be some  bad apples in  the  heap  of  apples  and that  some  indian  students  can act like  crabs  trying  to  bring down  those who try to escape from  the  bucket !  Yes  I learnt  that  success  and fame  can  make some  compatriots  jealous  even in a  foreign land!

I am  not sure whether there is  any  Student  Campus in the world  that  offers such wonderful  opportunities  for  students  from all  over the world to  live a dream  life with all amenities  and  facilities  in  an organized  and  academic  environment.Hats off to the planners  and  management  of  such a wonderful  facility  for their  vision  and  care  and  love for the  student  community as a  whole 

Though  Paris  is  known for  high valued fashion shops  and  highly priced  restaurants  and  eateries, it is also  a place where one can  have a   decent  living  with modest  income  too 

It  was  fatherly  affection  and  care  of  Professor Panigel  and  brotherly  support of  direct  research supervisor  Dr  Jean Claude Challier  that  solved  the  road-blocks  for  kicking off  the  training  in  human placental  perfusion  or  artificial  human uterus idea  floated by  Professor Panigel  and initiated me to a world  of  research  of  bound-less and exciting   possibilities

I  was delighted to  see that  the  students  of  Paris University  were blessed to  have a  wonderful  study  and  research  environment  and  the fact  that  those  who excelled in their studies  and  research  were  duly  honored  and  rewarded  with  incentives  and scholarships  was  another  bonus  too!

Encounter  at  the Police Headquarters  in Paris with the  friend  from Cameroon  and  the heart-wrenching scenes  and struggles of  perhaps millions all over the world  exposed me to the  truth  that western world  is not free from virus of  racism and  discrimination  and  disdain for the poor and  helpless millions  and all talk of  humanity  and compassion for the  poor  and  helpless are perhaps   just  lip service and hogwash!? 

Though I had  expected  that  renewal of  residence permit  will be  hassle-free, the behaviour  of  the  personnel  at  the Prefecture and the un-welcoming or even  aggressive  ambience  of  prefecture  was  revolting  and smacked of  plain racism!

Except for  the  University  Regulation  of  all  certificates  and  testimonials  of  the applicant  to be in French Language,  the processing  of  my application as a Doctoral Research Student  at University of  Paris  VI  was  without  much  head-aches!

The free ride in company  of  Professor  Panigel  through the dream land  of Paris  was  an  unforgettable  experience  that cannot be  defined in words and the explanation  as to why Professor chose an Indian  student  as his research  disciple  took my breath away  If only there are such divine persons  as professors  in  the  world, there is no need for  angels, perhaps?
