He said,”We owe
to our Motherland the duty of nation building and the road to making a
prosperous India calls for dedication, integrity and seriousness of purpose. “Since independence, we have, no doubt, achieved much in many
domains,” said the Vice-Chancellor adding that India is a self-reliant, fast
developing economy and we are increasingly recognized across the globe as an
economic powerhouse. He said that India’s greatest strength lays in its
pluralism, cultural, linguistic and religious diversity.
