Meghwal said, "Under the dynamic leadership of Prime Minister Narendra Modi, the central government has taken various initiatives to bring out the full potential of the youth in the nation building process."
"The role of youth for building a new India, the on-going technological changes and digital transformation has led to changing the pedagogy and learning methodology for students. The present four industrial revolution era has brought out new dimensions to the career opportunities across the sector. The emerging trend of the startup ecosystem, increasing the number of unicorns is a positive sign and testimony of the brilliance of the younger generation," Meghwal said.
