During the several rounds of discussions with the CHANCELLOR and the entire University syndicate as well as various HOD’s I  mainly stressed that education is not just an instrument to acquire knowledge. It is also a way of producing and nurturing socially sensitive, progressive, responsible and optimistic citizens. He emphasized his strong belief that a healthy relationship between the individual and the society is founded on the virtues of discipline, commitment and compassion, and these only a good educational system can provide. Such well-groomed individuals then go on to become the building blocks of a strong and healthy society.  The overall development of individual citizens and the building of a vibrant society go hand-in-hand.

I addressed during the ceremony – “As the world moves towards becoming a ‘knowledge society’ our strengths and achievements will be measured by the capacity of our research and infrastructure. I am sure our universities and institutions of higher learning will rise to the great challenge of developing our important human resource to meet the requirements of our times and our larger national interests”.
