the members to review achievements and failures and also embark towards the
future. He also encouraged the union to check various irregularities such as
proxy teaching in educational institutions that could hamper the future of
students, stated an update from the union.
- Stressing
that "the structure cannot be stable without strong foundation," he
appealed to the educated parents to give proper direction and career guidance
to children.
- Pointing
out that educated unemployed youth are a liability to the society, he stated
that quality education is the key to achieve success in any field. Reminding
that casual attitude would not help in achieving success but only through a
competitive mindset, he appealed to the students to rededicate themselves
academically and spiritually as there is no shortcut to success. He added that
success stories are full of hard work and perspiration.

cultural heritage to the world, he appealed to the people not to criticise the
festival but rather look on its positive side.
