Grab opportunities, taste success but achieve work-life balance, Telangana Governor Tamilisai Soundararajan tells students

Telangana Governor Tamilisai Soundararajan told students not to be slow in today’s technology-driven competitive world and advised them to sharpen their skills, set high goals and taste success but achieve the all-important work-life balance.

Dr. Tamilisai was speaking at the third convocation of SRM Universiry-AP here on Saturday. Addressing the graduate class of 2023, she said if students don’t find opportunities, they should create the same and spoke about the Centre’s slogan of ‘Atmanirbhar Bharat’ (Self-Reliant India). She also stressed the need to create an eco-system for start-up culture.

President of Indian National Science Academy Ashutosh Sharma spoke about the need to be “disruptive and transformational” and advocated three ways of solving a problem. Using Hindi words ‘jugaad, dhanda and panga’, he said the first meant a make-shift solution, which may not always be a good one, as it is not globally accepted and often cannot be scaled up.
