The Governor also exhorted the students not to use copy-paste material in their thesis and research works. He also expressed his concern about the number of research scholars that a single faculty member is guiding.

Delivering the convocation address, Prof. M. Jagadish Kumar said that the society has many expectations from the varsity graduates, and there is a need to link the students with varsity after the completion of course. Graduates should stand as ambassadors of the varsities in the society. He also pointed that various technological innovations are coming up in which students can provide their inputs and help farmers in rural areas. The most unfortunate thing is that the country is relying on profit-driven innovations, he concluded.
