Lucknow, Dec 15 (IBNS): President of India, Ram Nath Kovind, addressed the seventh convocation of the Babasaheb Bhimrao Ambedkar University in Lucknow, on Friday.

He also inaugurated Ambedkar Bhawan inn the University campus.

Governor of Uttar Pradesh Ram Naik was also present at the convocation

Speaking on the occasion, the President said that though the country was making a  rapid progress, one needs to do more on specific social and economic challenges as well as in the areas of science and technology.

When the country moves forward, he said, every citizen benefits and gets opportunities for personal development.

The President called upon students to be entrepreneurs – becoming job creators rather than just job seekers.

He advised them to follow the path of ethics and principles to attain true success in whichever walk of life they chose.

He said there could be no ambiguity or scope for argument on ethics, quoting a line to say: “Relativity applies to physics, not ethics.”

The President appreciated that the Babasaheb Bhimrao Ambedkar University has taken various steps to highlight social concerns and provide access to the disadvantaged.
