Expressing happiness over their entry into this institution, the freshers also sought the cooperation and support of the seniors to carry forward their further career in cordial, efficient and successful manner.
In his address, Peseyie stressed that education means all round development of an individual.
In pursuit of education, he said, one should not forget that “quality education” is a must and it supersedes all. “In this competitive age, there is no room for complacency and those students without quality education will be left out,” he said and appealed to all the students to take their studies seriously.
Stating that in olden days, our forefathers were known for their values of sincerity, truthfulness, integrity, obedience and respect for the elders, the minister however regretted that “But today, it is sad to see that these values which once formed the benchmark of our society is fast disappearing.”
In this, the minister challenged one and all to join hand to revive it before it is too late.
