Three Anchors in a Storm | KARNAL SINGH | TEDxShiva Shiksha Sadan Youth

In this deeply moving and introspective talk, a decorated police officer and former enforcement chief shares lessons from real moments of chaos, criticism, and courage — from leading the Batla House encounter to transforming national institutions. Through gripping stories of integrity under fire, reform born of truth, and compassion in leadership, he explores how three anchors — Grit, Grace, and Guiding Principles — can steady us when life unravels. Grit teaches persistence with purpose; Grace keeps strength humane; and Guiding Principles ensure we stay true amid pressure and praise alike. Blending personal experiences, moral reflections, and timeless wisdom, this talk inspires audiences to lead with courage, act with empathy, and stand firm on values — even when the storm rages hardest. I belong to the 1984 batch of the Indian Police Service and superannuated in October 2018 after a distinguished career of over three decades. An engineer turned investigator, administrator, author, and mentor, I now serve as Managing Partner at Circle of Counsels, focusing on financial crimes and regulatory matters. I am on the Governing Body of the Institute of Cyber Security & Law, University of Delhi, and President of Grameen Yuva Kendra, mentoring rural youth. An alumnus of DCE, IIT Kanpur, FMS, and Salgaokar Law College, I held key positions including Director, Enforcement Directorate; DG Police, Mizoram; and Joint CP, Special Cell. I led landmark investigations such as 2G, Vijay Mallya, Nirav Modi, and Ishrat Jahan SIT. Recipient of the Satyendra Dube Award, President’s Police Medal, and sports honours, I continue contributing to law, academia, and social work with a commitment to ethics, excellence, and nation-building. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx
