President Kovind urges students to work towards making India the best nation by 2047

President Ram Nath Kovind, on Tuesday, addressed the third convocation of the Central University of Gujarat. During his address, he urged the students to work towards nation-building, assimilate Gujarat's culture of self-reliance, entrepreneurship, and self-employment.

"After 25 years, India will be celebrating its 100th anniversary of Independence in 2047. This generation of students will become witness to it. I want all of you to take a pledge to work towards



nation-building so that our country emerges as the best nation in the world by 2047," Kovind said, as reported by PTI.

During his address, the president termed the Central University of Gujarat as ‘mini India.'

"I am told students from Gujarat constitute just 15 percent of the total strength while the rest are from other states. I urge these students from other states to assimilate Gujarat's culture of self-reliance, entrepreneurship, and self-employment," he added.
