Karnataka Governor Thaawarchand Gehlot has called upon fresh graduates in agriculture and horticultural sciences to work towards making India “Vishwa Guru” in the coming years.
Speaking at the eighth annual convocation of Shivappa Nayaka University of Agricultural and Horticultural Sciences at Iruvakki in Sagar taluk on Friday, July 21, the governor said the country would complete 100 years of Independence in 25 years. Youth of the country had played a prominent role during the freedom struggle. “Similarly, the present day youth should work hard to make India a developed country. As of now, India stands fifth in the world in terms of economy. We should strive to achieve higher economic growth,” he said.
The governor suggested the graduates in agriculture to give preference in becoming job-givers, instead of job-seekers. Advance technologies in agriculture should be introduced to the field to enhance yield and income, he said.
