India’s role in shaping the global narrative and global ideas has become increasingly crucial in past few years, and the country getting the presidency of UN Security Council, and influential world groups like G20 and Shanghai Cooperation Organisation later this year is an indication of the role India will assume in the future, said Harsh Vardhan Shringla, Foreign Secretary of India, while speaking at the Annual Convocation of Chandigarh University held at its Gharuan campus.
Asserting that record USD 150 Billion FDI, 60 per cent of our population being young, foreign exchange reserves of over USD 600 billion, projected growth of 9 per cent in this financial year, and expansive internet penetration and divide, are some of the testimonies to India’s continuous rise to the top, Shringla urged the passing out students to reap the most out of the best education and a new, brighter future that lies ahead of them.
A total of 1025 students of the 2021 batch including 920 from MBA and 105 from ME were awarded degrees. Shringla was the chief guest on the occasion. Dr Satnam Singh Sandhu, Chancellor, Chandigarh University and Pro-Chancellor Dr R S Bawa along with other officials, were also present on the occasion.
