Gandhinagar: Gujarat Chief Minister Vijay Rupani on Monday addressed students on the occasion of 1 st Convocation Ceremony of Gokul
Global University situated at Sidhpur. He expressed his commitment to build a skilled youth force in Gujarat through research from energy to
Ayurveda and best timely education. While Gujarat is the role model of the country’s development and the best choice of investment, the government has made efforts to equip the youth of the state with the weapon of education and prepare the youth to compete with world.

It is necessary that students fulfill their responsibility towards the society as well as for the welfare of the poor and deprived. Gujarat has an ancient
heritage of excellent education. We have set up various new dimensions of education and sectoral university facilities in Gujarat. So now a student from Gujarat can get higher education in home state instead of going to other states for study, said the CM.

During the time of congress rule, there were only nine universities in Gujarat and the youths had limited opportunities for education. With the strong
planning of our government towards education, now 77 universities are functional today. CM expressed happiness that the youth of Gujarat and
across the country are getting higher education from various universities like Forensic, Science, Marine, Petroleum, Raksha Shakti, Railways, Tribal and becoming job givers.

The CM called upon the youth to realize our Prime Minister Mr. Narendra Modi’s vision to make India Self-reliant. He congratulated the students who
received their degrees and encouraged the students to work with their best efforts. He also called for a medical college like the Gokul Global University
is functional in North Gujarat.

performing state of start-up policy. He urged the students to make their careers brighter with the firm morale.
