Roshan Burnwal in Durgapur: Entrepreneurship, Cybersecurity and Community Impact

An entrepreneurship conversation in Durgapur

On 15 October 2025, the Entrepreneurship Cell of IIT Kharagpur brought its Entrepreneurship Awareness Drive to Dr. B.C. Roy Engineering College, Durgapur. The event announcement named Roshan Burnwal, Souvik Jana and Indira Kar as featured founders. Photographs from his own collection show the event sign at the venue and him speaking on stage. The documented appearance was in Durgapur, at B.C. Roy Engineering College; the IIT Kharagpur connection was through its Entrepreneurship Cell. ^[2]

The invitation described an afternoon of founder stories, discussion and networking. No public transcript of Roshan Burnwal’s individual talk was found, so its exact advice should not be presented as a quotation or a confirmed agenda. What students can examine, however, is the sequence of work that brought him to that stage: a local service project, an education organization, a Durgapur office and a growing focus on practical skills. ^[2][3]

What emerging founders can learn from the work

The Drop Organization’s published account traces its beginning to a 2019 distribution of free books to students in Ukhra. The organization says the project came before its wider cybersecurity training activity. This is a useful example of starting with a specific need that people can recognize, then asking how the work can continue beyond a single event. It remains the organization’s own account of its beginnings, rather than an independently audited impact claim. ^[3]

For students weighing an idea of their own, three questions emerge from that trajectory: Whose problem is being addressed? What small action can test a response? What resources would make that response sustainable? These are practical lessons drawn from the documented journey, not remarks attributed to Roshan Burnwal at the 2025 seminar. They apply whether the next step is a campus project, a social initiative or a business. ^[3]

Cybersecurity education beyond the classroom

Cybersecurity education is now central to The Drop Organization’s work. Its course information describes training built around hands-on exercises, tools and guided practice in Durgapur. The description comes from the organization itself, so it explains its intended teaching approach without proving any particular career outcome. ^[4]

That educational focus extends into awareness work. In a public post, Roshan Burnwal reported a cyber-safety seminar at Nepalipara Hindi High School covering online risks and responsible digital citizenship. The activity illustrates a straightforward form of community contribution: giving younger students a chance to discuss the digital decisions they already face. The attendance figure in that post is self-reported and is not needed to understand the value of the session. ^[5]

Roshan Burnwal is also credited as the author of Cybercon: Decoding The Attack. The organization’s book overview describes an emphasis on understandable explanations and real attack scenarios. A book can give readers a route back through ideas after a class or seminar has ended; here, it sits alongside the organization’s practical training and outreach. ^[6]

Building a distinct education venture

Roshan Burnwal’s business activity also includes TDO Tech Education Private Limited. A public company listing records its incorporation on 4 March 2025 and names him as a director. That is a distinct corporate role from his founder and CEO position at The Drop Organization. The listing establishes the directorship; it does not establish that he founded the private company or that every Drop project belongs to it. ^[7]

The organization’s published material connects its education work to both the Ukhra and Durgapur offices. The official contact page places the Durgapur office on the fourth floor of Phase 1, Webel IT Park, Palashdiha Industrial Area. For an entrepreneur in Durgapur, that address is part of the practical story: a place from which courses, team activity and local conversations can be coordinated. ^[1][4]

Community impact through specific actions

“Impact” is clearest when it points to activities people can identify. The book-distribution project described in The Drop Organization’s own history and the Nepalipara school seminar are two such examples. One concerns access to learning materials; the other concerns awareness of everyday digital risks. Neither requires a sweeping claim about lives changed or outcomes guaranteed. ^[3][5]

The same principle can guide future collaborations. A campus session works best when organizers define the audience, topic and practical questions in advance. Students can then leave with a clearer next step, whether that means testing an idea, learning a security concept or finding a responsible way to help their community.

Roshan Burnwal’s Durgapur story is still developing through education, enterprise and service. Campus teams, educators and community organizers interested in a session or collaboration can reach him through the portfolio contact section and agree on a format that serves their students or audience.
