Arunachal Pradesh Chief Minister Pema Khandu has said that Rajiv Gandhi University (RGU) has to play a pivotal role in order to improve the quality of education in the state. The Chief Minister said this while addressing the 38th foundation day celebration of the central university.
Mr Khandu said RGU's role is important not only in academics but also in social transformation. He assured all possible support for infrastructure development and said that many RGU products are serving in various capacities in the state. He exhorted the students to study well and translate their knowledge to benefit their respective rural areas. RGU has come a long way, said Governor Brig (Retd) B D Mishra, in his presidential address.
The Governor is the chief rector of the university. Governor Mishra advised the students to toe the principle of education which is meant for earning knowledge and not for the certificate. He earlier laid the foundation stone of the RGU rostrum and sports arena viewing gallery.
