People who belong to category 4, please read further. Everybody else, thank you for your time.

















Tips& Tricks

1.       Wear a Govinda style or a flashy red shirt- yellow pants to attract attention. You don’t have to raise your hands after this.
2.       If flashy shirts are on short supply, please create some spare cardboard hands. This will ensure your hands are up all the time.
3.       Get a mike and start with the words “Please let me finish”.
4.       Identify the perennial the CP heroes and give them some Center Fresh (zubaan pey lagaam)
5.       If the whole class is giving one opinion, give an exact opposite opinion even if it doesn’t make sense. The attention has been diverted and you have got the airtime.
6.       Sit next to a CP hero, and the moment he starts to talk, swap your name plate with him. Undo the process, before he catches you in the act.
7.       If you have nothing to contribute, just stand up and start talking about your personal experiences, use appropriate technical jargon according to the subject being taught.

Please email us your experiences after you follow the above tips.
Cheers.
