Rukhsana Akhter Wani had the honour of addressing the 21st Convocation of the University of Kashmir, graced by the Hon’ble Vice President of India, Sh. C.P. Radhakrishnan Ji. The ceremony was not merely an academic milestone but a powerful reflection of the aspirations, hard work, and determination of our youth. Standing before such bright minds reaffirmed her belief that the future of our nation is in capable and visionary hands.

This convocation symbolizes the confidence of young students in modern education and their commitment to shaping a better tomorrow. Universities must evolve beyond being institutions that simply preserve knowledge. They must become vibrant centers of innovation, human development, leadership, and social transformation. Education should not only inform minds but also inspire action and responsibility toward society.
