The Governor called upon the teaching community to take up the challenge of shaping the destinies of youth. He stressed upon instilling moral values, sense of patriotism, and spirit of social service and principles of good conduct in young citizens for the bright future of nation.
He said that the country would march ahead on the path of growth only when youth participated in mainstream activities and campaigns for eliminating social evils. He said that teachers must sensitise the students about these and inculcate human values in them.
He said that our country was known for best education and knowledge in ancient times and ‘Guru-Shishya’ tradition was responsible for this fame. This needed to be revived again, he added. He said that teachers should set a good example of conduct as well as knowledge and inspire children to follow their footsteps. He urged the teaching community to serve with devotion and be ideal human beings and teachers.
