TIL Desk/National/New Delhi/ As one of the youngest nations, it was imperative that the Indian youths’ energy was harnessed for national development and education could be used to that effect, President Ram Nath Kovind said on Wednesday.
“India is in the midst of multiple transformations. We are an old civilisation but have a young population. In the first half of the 21st century, we will have the largest population of youths in any country in the world,” Kovind said during the inaugural function of the golden jubilee celebrations of Jesus and Mary College (JMC).
“It is crucial to harness the energy of our young people and use it to make our country a developed society. Education is fundamental to this effort — calling for both access to education and quality of education,” he said.
The President said that with the fast changing nature of technology, many jobs were soon going to fall into obsolescence and that it were the centres of higher learning like JMC which would help people adapt to these changes.
