The PS to the registrar is very much caring and will let you sit in his office and after getting the permission from the registrar Sir take you to the office of the registrar where the registrar Sir will ask you a little bit if you anything regarding copyright, even they will tell you about the on going all laws regarding copyright in the world everything.

Thereafter the PS will take you to the another room where you will be introduced with the fellow members of the office and you have to work with them.

Main tasks

The main task regarding the intern is that you will be taught regarding the filing of application for copyright and how the copyright procedure goes on.

You have to check the application filed whether they are correct or not and slowly you will be taught how to work on the copyright software for registering the application. and seriously saying it was fun.

Work environment, people

Work environment was cool and people were friendly, especially two persons are there who are your age only so the compatibility was best with them and even other people were also very much friendly and also the head of the people working in the office was very much friendly and will call you BABU in a caring sense which was awesome to listen.

The best things & the bad things

Nothing is all bad or all good.

The Best Thing: the best thing I get to know is the high speed internet. The downloading speed and seriously saying I download near about 3-4 gb of data everyday.

Also in the lunch time the lan playing of games was the best part

The Bad Thing; there was no bad thing

Stipend/month

No Stipend

Accommodation etc. What did you to do chill in and around the office and the place of stay?

Accommodation was very much available. I used to stay at Laxmi Vihar which a place of PG’s and one can easily find the PG at reasonable cost.

Also the landlord of the PG was funny which makes our day more funnier in the night.

Chill places: well let me speak very honestly I didn’t leave the office during the office hours because you will never find a reason to leave it.

You even don’t get to know when your time get over. In the lunch time, in starting; me and my co intern used to go to a fruit chat thela which was very much occupied at the time of lunch.

Ministry canteen which was very much cheap and u can fill your stomach in just 15/-.

But overall saying I can’t forget this internship experience
