 As they say, “ A journey of a thousand miles must begin with a single step.” Seven years back, the vision of a few

budding managers led to the formation of Interest Group in Food and Agri-Business (IGFAB) as a

reflection of Agri-business Management in IIM Lucknow. Thereafter, the committee went on to

become the face of IIM Lucknow in the fields of agribusiness, environment and rural management,

standing tall as the sole committee on campus to represent the institute in these domains. Over the

years, the perseverance and hard work put in by the core members, has helped the committee to buildon the sound foundation.

 The year 2015-16 saw IGFAB moving to higher level in terms of the range and scale of the events

organized. Although it is one of the youngest committees on campus, IGFAB managed to capture the

centre stage with various relevant activities.

Forty Two was launched in 2014 as the official Literary and Public Speaking club of IIM Lucknow.

Now you would be wondering, what it is? And why in the world would a Literature club name itself on

a random number such as Forty Two.

Clearly, you’ve lost touch with the literature world! Well, a simple googling would tell you that Answerto the Ultimate Question of Life, the Universe, and Everything in The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy

by Douglas Adam is (Voila!) Forty Two (42!).

 And that is where we chip in.

For us, the motto is not for you to Google but to read and discuss books such as the one mentioned

above, write essays, poetry, short stories, play fun games (such as Playing Marc Anthony, Coffee

Roundtable), debate, engage in mock parliaments and the ilk. Clearly that’s enough for now, but we

have got a lot more in store for you and we know how to make literature fun for you guys. We just need

your help through active participation.

Our responsibilities, included but not limited to, are as follows:

• To promote Literature and satisfy the need for literary activities and public speaking amongst

the IIM Lucknow fraternity.

• Bridge the existing gap amongst students with communication issues and give them confidence

towards Public speaking and English writing as well as in general, over a period of time instead of just

before placements.

• To recognize the literary talent amongst the IIM Lucknow fraternity and channelize their

strength for the benefit of themselves and the college as a whole.

• To form a team of literary enthusiasts to represent IIM L in other B-school events and Literary

Fests as well as develop a unique and pioneering annual literary event in the mould of management and

cultural fests.
