“Education, especially higher education, is to be the fountainhead of a developed, prosperous and enlightened human society that shall contribute to peace, prosperity, harmony and happiness all around. This is, of course, a tall order, but then who other than the Indian universities, the torch bearers of the faith of people, repositories of tremendous wisdom of the Orient, blessed with enlightened and inspired minds of faculty and students and the could deliver this promise. This calls for a sustained focus on Quality, Relevance and Human Excellence, nurtured in an environment of Integration of Education with Human Values so that the universities in India could become, in true sense, partners in progress of nation’s development and meet the global aspirations of human excellence”.
