Some Tweets from Hon'ble President of India @rashtrapatibhvn


 - Research and innovation is the bedrock of advancing knowledge, and knowledge alone holds the key to finding solutions to our problem.

- Pursuing research demands constant determination from the researcher as well as full institutional support.

- Research is not a 9 A.M. to 5 P.M. job and thus our approach towards supporting and promoting a research culture cannot be a pedantic one.

- We have to emphasise the merits of research and teaching profession in our society at large. This profession offers unique benefits that no other career offers – freedom to ideate and to test and spread those ideas through research and teaching.

- That responsibility is to marry research and innovation to the needs of our country and people. Research and innovation can play an important role in lifting our people out of poverty, ensuring their health and well-being or attaining food and energy security.

- There is no doubt that government has a responsibility to promote and support research and innovation in our centres of education. However, there is a specific responsibility that lies with the researchers too.

- Our central universities are the pride of our higher education system. They have contributed immensely to nation building. The goal of our central universities should be to constantly grow and upgrade themselves as per the best of global standards.

- Universities are public institutions powered with the energy and dynamism of our youth. You must use this energy to engage with the communities near to your campuses as also with the government of the state that hosts you.
