Students urged to make India proud

The 8th edition of the Chhatra Sansad India Conclave (CSI) commenced at Lovely Professional University (LPU) under the theme ‘Vision India 2047: Bharat @ 100’. Renowned educationist Faisal Khan and Jaya Kishori, celebrated motivational speaker and spiritual leader, engaged with over 20,000 students through thought-provoking discussions and powerful insights.

Encouraging students to utilise technology wisely and develop essential skills, Faisal Khan, “Your character should speak for you. India’s population is not the problem — the lack of skills is. You, the youth, have the potential to elevate India on the global stage.” Acknowledging the exceptional learning environment at LPU, he highlighted how the university’s world-class infrastructure and dedicated faculty create unparalleled opportunities for the students. He urged the students to work hard and contribute meaningfully to the progress of their families and the nation.

Jaya Kishori inspired students to embrace spirituality alongside material success, debunking the myth that spirituality is detached from worldly responsibilities. She asserted, “Spirituality does not mean renouncing life; rather, it provides the strength to navigate its challenges. If you want to change society, begin with yourself because we are the society.”

She also reminded the students of their duty towards the nation, saying, “Be proud of being Indian and take the responsibility for making your country proud.”

LPU Chancellor Ashok Kumar Mittal shared the revolutionary impact of such initiatives, stating, “I firmly believe that India will emerge as a developed nation even before 2047, driven by the visionary leadership of India and the extraordinary awakening youth nurtured here at LPU.”
