NEW DELHI: The Vice-President Jagdeep Dhankhar today awarded degrees and medals to the students on the centenary annual convocation celebrations of the Delhi University. Describing Bharat as the land of ‘hope and opportunities’ the VP said, “Our ‘Amrit Kaal’ is a launchpad for Viksit Bharat@2047.”
Addressing the gathering, Dhankhar drew attention to the monumental and phenomenal rise of the country and highlighted that India today is exploding with possibilities and defining the global order.
Referring to India’s impactful rise on the international front as a global leader, the Vice-President underlined that “the world now recognises India’s soft diplomacy as a stabilising force and as the voice of the Global South”. He cited the inclusion of the African Union and the announcement of the India-Middle East-Europe trade route in G20 as resounding successes in this regard.
Exhorting the students to shake off the obsession with competitive examinations and look beyond usual job opportunities, Dhankhar insisted “Bharat has expectations from you, not just as employees, but as innovators, entrepreneurs, and change makers”. Future belongs to those who dare to dream bigger, bolder, beyond the ordinary, he told the graduating students.

The VP praised the transparent governance ecosystem in the country and said, “Dark clouds of corruption that cast a shadow over our nation for a period far too long have now vanished. Governance, rather than being an obstruction, is now enabling- open, accessible, and serves the people, not a privileged few.”
VP further asserted that now opportunities are decided by merit and not by patronage. “Equality before law, quintessential to democracy, is no longer just a constitutional ideal, it is an acknowledged reality”, he stressed.
