Follow ethics and principles, President tells students

Lucknow, Dec 15: President Ram Nath Kovind on Friday urged student community to become job creators rather than remain just job seekers and advised them to follow the path of ethics and principles to attain true success in whichever walk of life they chose.

Addressing the convocation of the Babasaheb Bhimrao Ambedkar University here, the President said there should be no ambiguity or scope for argument on ethics. “Relativity applies to physics, not ethics,” he pointed out.
On the occasion, he inaugurated Ambedkar Bhawan on the university campus. 
Mr Kovind noted with satisfaction the rapid progress the country was making, but said we needed to do more on specific social and economic challenges as well as in the areas of science and technology. When the country moves forward, he said, every citizen benefits and gets opportunities for personal development.
The President noted that the Babasaheb Bhimrao Ambedkar University had taken various steps to highlight social concerns and provide access to the disadvantaged. It also provided for reservations for single girl children as well as students with serious ailments.
The university has adopted villages near the campus and worked with the local community on education and development, and connected local people to the University’s Innovators' Club. He appreciated such efforts, calling them an example of the students’ sensitivity and sense of responsibility. UNI
