JAMMU, DECEMBER 13: Lieutenant Governor Manoj Sinha today said some forces are active and trying to destabilize the country
“Youth want a fear-free, corruption-free, and development-oriented modern society. However, some forces are still active within and trying to destabilize the country. Youth and the entire society will have to unite and defeat such elements,” he said.
He was addressing the Annual Day Function of KC International School Jammu, at General Zorawar Singh Auditorium. The Lieutenant Governor congratulated the management, teachers, and students of the school and extended his best wishes.
Lieutenant Governor asked the youth to move forward with the common aim which is to reclaim India’s position as Vishwa Guru and prove themselves to be the true successors of the ancestors who established great centers of education like Nalanda, Takshashila, Vikramshila.
Lieutenant Governor encouraged the students to Dream Big! Believe in yourself and work hard with focus and persistence to fulfill your dream.
“I have always admired the energy, innovation, and commitment of young people and I am witnessing our youth are at the forefront of change,” the Lieutenant Governor said.
Speaking on the transformation taking place in the educational landscape in J&K, under the leadership of Prime Minister Narendra Modi, Lieutenant Governor called upon the teaching community to reinvent the classroom learning and provide mentorship to students.
Education means learning, not the delivery of information. Only teacher-student engagement can generate curiosity, creativity, and imagination among students. We must create a conducive environment to develop lifelong learning and problem-solving skills and encourage critical thinking, creativity, and collaboration among students, he said.
