Patna, December 2: Governor of Bihar and Chancellor of Patna University, Shri Rajendra Vishwanath Arlekar, emphasized the importance of having a clear goal in life and contributing to societal welfare while addressing the annual convocation ceremony of Patna University held at Veronica Hall, Patna Women’s College.
Speaking to the gathering of graduates, scholars, and faculty members, the Governor urged the youth to transition from being job seekers to becoming job providers, suggesting entrepreneurship and startups as viable pathways for economic and social contributions.
Education Beyond Textbooks
Governor Arlekar highlighted the continuous nature of education, stating that learning is a lifelong process. He emphasized that education is not confined to textbooks but extends to interactions with people from all walks of life. Addressing the degree and medal recipients, he reminded them of the vital role their families have played in their achievements and urged them to express gratitude to their parents and mentors by dedicating their success to them.
“Your accomplishments are not yours alone; they reflect the unwavering support and guidance of your family and loved ones,” the Governor said.
A Call for Social Responsibility
Urging the students to work hard and set clear goals in life, the Governor underlined that their success, progress, and fame are intricately linked to the society that nurtures them. He called upon the graduates to use their education for the greater good of society.
“The youth must strive to achieve their goals through diligence and resilience. They should dedicate their skills and knowledge for the benefit of society,” he said.
Promoting Entrepreneurship and Self-Reliance
The Governor stressed the need for young people to break away from the traditional mindset of seeking government or private jobs and instead focus on creating opportunities for others. He motivated the youth to embark on entrepreneurial journeys, reassuring them that challenges faced along the way would eventually dissipate with persistent efforts.
“Our youth should have the courage to chart their own path. Starting a business or a startup is an excellent way to contribute to society and foster self-reliance,” he remarked.
Highlighting the government’s initiatives to support startups, the Governor announced that every university in Bihar would establish an Entrepreneurship Development Cell to provide students with the necessary guidance and assistance to become successful entrepreneurs.
