The Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi attended the 42nd Convocation of Anna University in Chennai today. Governor of Tamil Nadu, Shri R N Ravi, Chief Minister Shri M K Stalin, Union Minister Shri L Murugan were among those present on the occasion.<\/p>\n

Addressing the gathering, the Prime Minister congratulated the students on getting their degrees. \u201cCongratulations to all those who are graduating today in Anna University\u2019s 42nd convocation. You would have already built a future for yourselves in your minds. Therefore, today is not only a day of achievements but also of aspirations\u201d, he said. Calling them the leaders of tomorrow, the Prime Minister also noted the sacrifices of the parents and support of teachers and non teaching staff of the University.<\/p>\n

The Prime Minister recalled the words of Swami Vivekananda in what was known as Madras 125 years ago about the possibilities from the youth of India.\u00a0 The Prime Minister remarked that \u201cthe whole world is looking at India\u2019s youth with hope. Because you are the growth engines of the country and India is the world\u2019s growth engine.\u201d<\/p>\n

The Prime Minister also recalled Former President Dr A. P. J. Abdul Kalam\u2019s association with Anna University. \u201cMay his thoughts and values always inspire you\u201d, said the Prime Minister.<\/p>\n

The Prime Minister noted that the COVID-19 pandemic was an unprecedented event. It was a once-in-a-century crisis that nobody had any user manual for. It tested every country. He remarked that adversities reveal what we are made of. India faced the unknown confidently, thanks to its scientists, healthcare professionals and common people. As a result, he said, every sector in India is bustling with a new life. Industry, investment, innovation or international trade, all are seeing India at the forefront. The Prime Minister said India was the world\u2019s second-largest mobile phone manufacturer last year. Innovation\u00a0 is becoming a way of life. In just the last 6 years,\u00a0 the number of recognised start-ups increased by 15,000 percent, he said. The Prime Minister informed that India received a record FDI of over 83 billion dollars last year. Our start-ups too received record funding post-pandemic. Above all this, India\u2019s position in the international trade dynamics is at its best ever.<\/p>\n

In this era of tech-led disruptions, the Prime Minister said there are three important factors\u00a0 in India\u2019s favour. The first factor is there is a taste for technology. There is a growing sense of comfort with the use of technology. Even the poorest of the poor are adapting to it. \u201cThe second factor is there is trust in risk-takers. Earlier at social occasions it was difficult for a youngster to say he or she was an entrepreneur. People used to tell them to \u2018get settled\u2019, meaning, get a salaried job. Now the situation is the opposite. The third factor is:\u00a0 there is temperament for reform.\u201d The Prime Minister continued that earlier, \u201cthere was a notion that a strong government means it should control everything and everyone. But we have changed this. A strong government does not control everything or everyone. It controls the system\u2019s impulse to interfere. A strong government is not restrictive but is responsive. A strong government does not move into every domain. It limits itself and makes space for people\u2019s talents\u201d, he elaborated. He further emphasised that \u201cA strong government\u2019s strength lies in its humility to accept that it can not know or do everything\u201d, This why reforms are making greater space for people and their talent in every space. He gave examples of freedom and flexibility provided to youth by the National Education Policy and scrapping of 25,000 compliances for ease of business. \u201cRemoval of angel tax, removal of retrospective tax, and reduction of corporate tax \u2013 are encouraging investments and industry. The reforms in drones, space and geospatial sectors are opening up new avenues\u201d, he said.<\/p>\n

The Prime Minister underlined the link between the progress of youth and the nation. He said in conclusion \u201cYour growth is India\u2019s growth. Your learnings are India\u2019s learnings. Your victory is India\u2019s victory.\u201d<\/p>\n

During the programme, the Prime Minister awarded gold medals and certificates to 69 gold medalists. Anna University was established on 4 September 1978. It is named after C. N. Annadurai, the former Chief Minister of Tamil Nadu. It has 13 Constituent Colleges, 494 Affiliated Colleges spread over Tamil Nadu and 3 Regional Campuses \u2013 Tirunelveli, Madurai and Coimbatore.<\/p>\n
