The members of the Press and the Media have
been projecting to the public our message,
showcasing the transparency and integrity of
MAHE. Hearty welcome to all of them who
have responded to our invitation.
It is a great day for the parents of graduates
and post-graduates, who are to receive their
degrees today. I extend a warm welcome to
all of them, who have come in large numbers
to share the joy of this occasion.
Last, but not least, the most important people
of this convocation are the graduates, the
post-graduates and the post-doctoral fellows
who are eager to receive their degrees today.
Dear graduates, while the successful
completion of your course, is a matter of
pride and joy, it is just a steppingstone to
8
the challenges that lie ahead of you in the
future. You live in an era where the pace of
technology transition is taking place at a mind
bobbling pace, that even as I speak, new
concepts are being introduced, established
paradigms are being refined and research is
opening new vistas. The change being driven
by pathbreaking research is both exhilarating
and mesmerizing. As young graduates, it
will be your challenge to imbibe the latest
developments in the field of technology.
Once again, my heartiest congratulations on
your success, and the very best wishes to all
of you. Ladies and gentlemen, once again I
extend a gracious welcome to all of you to
this occasion.
Thank you.
