The ceremony was commenced with the ceremonial lighting of the lamp and other dignitaries including Dr. Shantaram (Member of the Governing Council of TAPMI) and Dr. Madhu Veeraraghavan, Director, TAPMI. The lecture was attended by the students and faculty of the institute and proved to be a fount of inspiration for all.

Speaking on the occasion, Dr. Singh, says, “Education, apart from imparting knowledge and skills, should equip students to appreciate the value of human life”.  He also advised the students that success shouldn’t be at the cost of one’s health or conscience. Dr. Singh outlines the 7 C’s of successful management of life – cosmic consciousness, confidence, commitment to lead, communication, conduct, connectivity and collective responsibility.

After his inspiring speech, Dr. Singh opened the floor for questions and he reminded that achieving competence was more important than gaining multiple degrees. Quoting William Blake’s poem, ‘To see a world in a grain of sand and a Heaven in a Wild Flower, hold Infinity in the palm of your hand and eternity in an hour’ he said that we can find vast truths in the smallest of things.
