New education policy to usher in era of modern learning: Kovind

President Ram Nath Kovind on Thursday expressed confidence that the implementation of the New Education Policy would usher in an era of modern learning and education.

The President said the policy would create a brigade of researchers and professionals who would take our country to the great heights of development, as befitting our national aspirations.

Addressing the 41st annual convocation of the Anna University in Chennai, the President said that knowledge is the foundation upon which the character of each individual is built.

Kovind reiterated that education is the catalyst for change and the youth is the most potent agent of social transformation.

He said that educated youth, given the right direction can bring revolutionary changes in the course of history. "That is what the National Education Policy 2020 aims to achieve. The new policy seeks to implement a modern education system based on research, skill and acumen relevant to the evolving needs of the present."

At the same time, the President said the policy would also include within its domain our rich cultural heritage in consonance with a futuristic outlook. "The policy focuses on inculcating moral values and promoting understanding of Indian culture."

The President was happy to note that Anna University is one of the largest technological universities in the world, offering undergraduate and postgraduate courses in Engineering, Technology, Architecture and Applied Sciences relevant to the current and projected needs of the society. He said this university was making an impressive contribution in the field of education. That is why it figures among the top institutions in QS World and NIRF rankings.

The President said that Anna University has created a conducive ambience for encouraging technological pursuits that cultivate the right learning attitude for the young students. The scientific temper that is nurtured in the students is well expressed in the projects and achievements of this university.

Kovid was glad to note that this is the first Indian university to design, develop and operate a satellite in association with ISRO. He said that ANUSAT, the satellite is not just an achievement but also an inspiration for young minds across the globe to reach for the stars.
