Education which encourages skill development holds key for solving unemployment: Sonowal
Speaking as the Chief Guest at the 5th Convocation of Don Bosco University at Azara in Guwahati on Saturday evening, Sonowal said that in a short span of its existence Don Bosco University has already curved a niche in the education environment of the State.
He also said that Don Bosco University can also contribute in the promotion of skill development and said that a synergy between the State Government and Don Bosco University will delve a huge fillip to the proliferation of skill development in the State.
Sonowal urged all the passed out students of the university to be ambassadors and spread the values of education by championing the causes of honesty, universal brotherhood and integrity.
He also asked the students to inculcate amongst themselves the values to become ideal citizens and foster peace, tranquility, equality in the society.
"The society looks forward to you to bring about changes in positive direction and create an environment of values in our State, Nation and the world. So please work diligently to materialize these values for a better tomorrow," Sonowal said.
It may be mentioned that altogether 648 students received their certificates of whom 36 per cent are women.
