Acquire knowledge, question injustice through constitutional means: Rajnath Singh to youth
Rajnath Singh said education without character is incomplete and urged students to become job creators and value humility and sensitivity.
- On Saturday, Defence Minister Rajnath Singh addressed the 11th convocation ceremony of Babasaheb Bhimrao Ambedkar University in Lucknow, emphasizing that education providing only a degree without developing character is incomplete and valueless.
- Singh argued that "character is even more important than education," warning educated individuals lacking morality and humility can be dangerous, while citing Ambedkar as a model for choosing education over violence despite historical injustice.
- India has evolved into the world's third-largest startup ecosystem, with youth excelling in space technology, Singh reported, stating, "Knowledge is incomplete without values and personality is incomplete without sensitivity."
- Addressing students, the Bharatiya Janata Party leader outlined four stages of success—being ignored, ridiculed, opposed, then praised—urging them to dream big for the nation and become employment generators.
- Cultural confidence elevates a nation beyond economic prosperity, Singh noted, highlighting India's commitment to "Vasudhaiva Kutumbakam" , and that India now shapes global rules rather than merely following them.
