Hello Sir, myself a mechanical engineering apprentice at a textile mill in Ludhiana and my father was a machine operator, and I followed his path, hoping to learn on the job. Now with Industry 4.0, the mill is installing robotic welders and IoT sensors. I fear my manual skills will be obsolete. I have rudimentary programming knowledge but no formal training. Should I enroll in a vocational course on industrial automation, or aim for a broader IT diploma? How can I position myself to work alongside robots and smart machines rather than be replaced by them? And for someone from a working-class background, what affordable upskilling routes exist to enter high-growth manufacturing roles?

Ans: Suggest you find a good course in industrial automation, robotics and AI and get comfortable with these new capabilities

For years, I’ve worked in a traditional role with little exposure to technology, and I’ve always taken pride in the knowledge and experience I’ve built over time. But now, with companies like JPMorgan Chase laying off employees to automate tasks, I’m starting to feel like my skills might become obsolete. I know I need to adapt, but the world of digital banking, AI, and automation feels unfamiliar. I’m not sure where to start or what skills are worth learning. How can someone like me, with no prior tech experience, begin preparing for the future of work?

Ans: Hello
In the larger scheme of things, tech is indeed impacting workplace dynamics & will continue to increasingly do so in coming times.
Having said that, the impact will not be uniformly applicable in all areas/fields.
Yes basic knowhow of emerging tech will be helpful in most spheres but the depth of application varies from field to field.
I am not aware of your area of work hence not in a position to advice anything in specific.
Feel free to ask further for anything in specific.
All the Best!!

Respected Sir, I work at a mid-sized IT firm in Pune as a Java developer. With the rise of AI tools like Copilot and ChatGPT, I feel that basic coding jobs may become obsolete. I'm from a modest background and can't afford expensive upskilling courses. Would you recommend I focus on AI/ML self-learning through open platforms, or should I pivot toward roles like tech writing or product testing? How can I future-proof my career?

Ans: Yes you should be conversant with AI. Traditional coding and testing jobs will be eliminated.

Money

Hello sir, Recently we sell the property and right now 40 lakhs cash in hand. I am planning to put it in FD for monthly income. Right now I don't have any loans or any liabilities. Infact nearly 50k I am investing monthly in mutual funds. Already 10 lakhs FD in wife savings account and more than 20 lakhs KVP in post office on my children name. I am actually planning for passive income apart from my salary. With this income I am planning to roam around the india twice in a year with family. Without tax deduction or TDS how to segregate this 40 lakh for passive income. Getting a monthly salary more than a lakh. But I don't want to use my salary money for any enjoyments, it is for only MF investments, domestic expenses and future savings. Kindly guide me please.

Ans: Your query is subject to many factors like your risk appetite, how you are planning your trips etc. Usually for such kind of goals (wherein fund is required after 6-8 months), people invest in liquid mutual fund. On redemption TDS will not be deducted but tax will be applicable.

OBC category 492 par govt mbbs milega kya sir Maharashtra mein.

Ans: With a rank of 492 in the OBC category in Maharashtra, a candidate's chances of securing admission to a government medical college are likely to be low, though not impossible. While it's tough to predict with absolute certainty without knowing the specific college and cutoff trends for the current year, generally, a higher score is needed to secure a seat in a government medical college, especially within a competitive category like OBC.
