Editorial

“The old order changeth, yielding place to the new...”

-Bible, Old Testament

There is no permanence except change – and change is always good. The first day of this June saw the
rise of a new regime at EIL led by a visionary, a scholar, a people’s man and a leader who rose amongst
our own brethren to become our Chairman & Managing Director – Shri Sanjay Gupta. We share the
privilege and honor to present before our readers an account of his accession to the worthy chair he now
holds, his landmark joining speech and career brief, in this issue.

The last quarter was significant for reasons more than one.

Our forays into territories abroad started yielding results – and no prizes for guessing this one; we are
talking about Abu Dhabi office bagging orders worth `150 Crores. There were several successes at sites
all over the project landscape – milestones were achieved ahead of schedule, units were commissioned
successfully and a couple of really complex tasks were accomplished with intense efforts. We sincerely
believe that the readers shall feel the winds of positive change as they traverse through various sections
on company news.

Leaders at EIL have always unleashed the power of Human Resource through their motivational skills.
Embarking on a novel initiative, our C&MD released books written by young, talented officers. Also, our
Director (HR) engaged with youngsters actively, inspiring them to soar high at EIL.

And last but not the least; 5th June was celebrated as ‘Environment Day’ world over, including at EIL.
This is precisely the reason why all the pages in this issue have a green tinge. It is meant to disseminate
the message that we at EIL carry a conscience, that we care and choose to generate sensitivity towards
the place where we thrive – our Mother: the Earth.

As someone has rightly said –

We do not inherit the Earth from our fathers; we borrow it from our children.

Let us repay our debts with interest.
