On the occasion, the LG congratulated the faculty, and all those associated with the functioning of the University for achieving great milestones, shaping young minds and increased collaboration between academia and industry.

According to an official press release, invoking the vision of the Prime Minister Narendra Modi, the LG asserted that National Education Policy (NEP) will redefine education in universities and expressed his whole-hearted support to the initiatives of the varsity.

NEP stresses upon nurturing creativity, curiosity, collaboration, involvement of students in activities inside and beyond the classroom. The education policy is a beacon of light to guide and motivate teachers as well as students and overall learning outcomes, he added.

The LG emphasized that the real function of education is to nurture talents. NEP provides us an opportunity to develop our universities, education institutions as centres of future-oriented, value-based quality education centres where students get an independent environment to innovate and invent.

“Education is the key to open the mind of students. Individual growth and independent thinking is possible only when a student is provided an environment not confined to the classroom and gets an opportunity to nurture creativity and wisdom,” the LG said.

“Under the guidance of the Prime Minister, we have received an opportunity to make sure that universities are not known as centres of providing degrees but the education and increasing the collaboration between teachers and students,” the LG said.

“Students don’t just need the degree, they need education and it is possible only with increased involvement and collaboration with teachers,” he added.

Highlighting the major initiatives of the University of Jammu, the LG attributed the establishment of Special Purpose Vehicle Foundation in November 2020 as a major milestone and a significant step towards promoting a culture of Start-ups, Industry-Academic Partnership, Innovation and Incubation in the Union Territory of Jammu and Kashmir.

The LG said that the establishment of Guru Nanak Chair was in line with the NEP, as it was a major initiative to reestablish the significance of our invaluable cultural heritage. The ancient wisdom by saints and seers and contribution of great scientists is what actually forms the foundation of modern India, he added.

On the occasion, the LG urged all the teachers to dedicate themselves to opening the minds of their students to new ideas, stirring curiosity and nurturing creativity by creating an open environment for their growth and eventually facilitating in building a new society in future.

The LG also released the Dogri translation of the Indian Constitution, done by Prof Archana Kesar and her team of Dogri writers and translators, Prakash Premi, Yashpaul Nirmal, and Nirmal Vikram under the legal guidance of Prof. Arvind Jasrotia, Registrar, University of Jammu and Dean Faculty of Law.

Prof Dinesh Singh, Chancellor K.R. Mangalam University and former Vice-Chancellor Delhi University, who was the Special Guest on the occasion, spoke at length about the traditional Upanishadic System of learning of India which produced great minds and spiritual leaders who understood the essential role of education which was to anchor the individual in his own sense of self which further led to excellence. He also stressed on transdisciplinary learning and collaborative projects. Citing the example of great scientists, he underlined the importance of social utility of knowledge and how practical experience also plays an important role in the growth of education and knowledge.

Earlier, welcoming the Chancellor and LG on the historic occasion, Vice Chancellor, Umesh Rai gave an overview of the “path-breaking initiatives” taken by the LG to revamp the education ecosystem in the UT. He further gave an overview of the strides taken by the University since its inception in 1969. He also spelled out broad contours of academic activities strategized for the years to come, keeping in view the emerging trends in the field of education. The Vice Chancellor also thanked the present and former faculty, people from the civil Society and all other stakeholders of the University for their contribution in making this University the best seat of higher learning in this part of the country.

A wide variety of cultural activities were also showcased by the students, alumni and eminent artists of Jammu on the occasion.
