In response to the felicitation, Mr. Magdum began by saying that he is feeling nostalgic about his student days. Recalling how chose law despite being a Science graduate, due to pressure from family members, he said that he started liking the subject once he began attending classes. “I am feeling guilty as I ended up coming here by invitation. I should have come earlier, to interact with students,” he said.
