During his Convocation Address the Minister encouraged the students to explore new opportunities and experiment with new ideas. “Think out of the box! Today the doors are open to new ideas, to entrepreneurship,” he said to the students.

The Minister also shared his experience of an interaction with a group of youngsters whose idea was to control accidents caused because of high-beam headlights in vehicles.  He mentioned that the idea might sound simple but the solution it provides can prevent accidents or even save lives.
