Motivating and Inspiring Speech by Vishwas Nangare Patil

One of the great IPS officer India has got. Vishwas Nangare Patil sir is youth icon, role model & hero for upsc aspirants & many others.

He is from small village ‘Kokrud’ in Sangli district in Maharashtra. He has completed his schooling from New English school Shirala,Sangli & got 88% in 10th std. in the year 1988.Afterwards he took admission in science stream and after passing HSC despite having good marks decided to do BA (completed from Rajaram College, Kolhapur)thinking it will be helpful for upsc preparation. At the college hostel, bollywood superstar R Madhvan was his roommate.

During his upsc interview one of the panel member Lt. Gen Surendra Nath sir asked him last question ‘Vishwas iss duniya me tum kyon aaye ho?(Why did you come into this world?) thoda explain kijiye.’ Vishwas sir don’t know how to answer this question but thought a while about his journy from school days, rural background to those struggling days in Mumbai while preparing for upsc(regularly waking up at 3 am in the morning, catching first local train from Ambivali station where he used to stay at his cousin’s house (which is almost 80km from CST) to reach CST Mumbai railway station. He used to be the first person to reach library everyday around 5:30 am & continuously studying till 8:30 pm. Besides that he used to wear only one jeans, t-shirt throughout the week,and couldn't afford food at hotels rice plate beyond Rs.15). He said sir i want to tell you one poem taught by our college teacher which defines my goal very clearly

“ To dream the impossible dream To fight the unbeatable foe

To bear with unbearable sorrow To run where the brave dare not to go

To right the unforgivable wrong To love the pure & chaste from afar

To reach that unreachable star This is my quest to follow that star

No matter how hopeless, no matter how far

To fight for the right without questions without pause

To be willing to march into the hell for heavenly cause.’’

Sir I think I have come to this world ‘to do struggle & if given a chance I will fight against bad & negative things in the system.’

He has successfully passed the upsc in 1997 & selected for IPS .

After that he has done very good job in police system & is considered as the most committed & dedicated police officer.

During 26/11 attack he was DCP Zone 1 Mumbai & immediately rushed to the hotel Taj & showed exemplary courage. He along with his bodyguard Amit Khetle directly went inside Taj. Condition was such that they couldn't even wait till the additional workforce came, not having bulletproof jacket or even modern weapons. Surprise counter attack & firing on the terrorists injuring one of them,laid the terrorists on defensive mode. Throughout the whole operation the police team voluntarily risked their lives with utmost motivation & commitment.He got the ‘President Police Medal for Gallantry’. Ram Pradhan Committee appointed by Maharashtra government praised this IPS officer & police team. Vishwas sir used to say ‘Agar us raat mere haat kaapne lagte, meri family mere nazro ke samne aati, agar me dar jata tha to shayad hamesha ke liye me apni khud ki nazro se gir jaata’ He knew very well that I will not get any better opportunity than this to do something or die for my country.Whatever he had said in upsc interview ‘To fight for the right without questions without pause’ absolutely followed in his real life.
