 I request Founder President of Symbiosis and Chancellor of Symbiosis International University, Professor Dr. S.B. Muzumdar to kindly felicitate our Honorable Prime Minister, Srinarendra Modi ji, Professor Dr. S.B. Muzumdar, Founder President of Symbiosis and Chancellor of Symbiosis International University to kindly address the gathering. An iconic visionary 86 years young who has dedicated his entire life to the motto of Vasudev Kutumbakam, the world is one family. Srinarendra Modi ji, Honorable Prime Minister of India, Bhagat Singh Kosheri, Honorable Governor of Maharashtra, Subhash Desai, Honorable Minister of Industry, Government of Maharashtra, Devendra Ferdinandji, Leader of Opposition and a great well-wisher of Symbiosis, our Vaishyanjala Rajni Gupta, Professors, Directors, Industrialists, Council Generals who have come here and those 5000 students who have gathered specially here to see you sir and listen to you. Where I come from a small town called Harali-Buddhru in Kolhapur district, this population is just 2000 and many of them have come all the way from Harali-Buddhru just to see you and listen to you that is your popularity in rural India. It was perhaps a divine design that the Prime Minister of the country, Srinarendra Modi ji would physically bless the Golden Jubilee Celebrations of Symbiosis. Sir, you are the Prime Minister of a country where there is the largest democracy where rugviz and upanishads, Ravayan and Mahabharat were crafted, where sacred Ganga flows, where world is regarded as one family, where Buddha and Mahatma Gandhi trod and where truth triumphs. Prime Minister Srinarendra Modi ji who is loved, respected and honored all over the world has made Symbiosis campus historic and sacred by very presence. Sir, this is the historic moment to all of us and the moment of fulfillment of my life. I bow my head, I repeat I bow my head with respect and reverence for sparing your time and bless Symbiosis giving paripurthi, paripurthi to my life. Sir, more than an institution, Symbiosis is an idea. It evokes coexistence and interdependence. 50 years ago the idea germinated in my mind to promote friendship and understanding between foreign and Indian students and thereby promote international understanding. Initially a cultural center that was started in a small room in my house at Furbishan College campus eventually flowered into international university. Its motto has been Vasudraya Kutumbakam and foreign and Indian students, foreign students from 85 countries and students from almost all states of India are provided quality education. Symbiosis has also started skill universities in Indore and Pune. Symbiosis Dr. Babasar Ambedkar Museum and Memorial is recognized as one of the prominent museums of her country. Today we are celebrating golden jubilee of this golden idea. Sir, every organization has its well wishes and aapka jo slogan nahin na sir, sabka saad, sabka vikas equally applicable to organizations like Symbiosis. And therefore I acknowledge the cooperation of important individuals like then chief minister VP Naik, then education minister Madhukura Chaudhary, industrialist Yathur Sanctani and the founder members, principal S. D. Patil, James Ramlal, A. S. Andhikar, Dr. S. Stigare, Dr. S. K. Bhosle and of course my wife Sanjeevadeva. Sir, you will be inaugurated, you will be inaugurating Symbiosis Aarogidham. This university is health promoting university and Aarogidham is situated in proud place. Sir, having spent over 60 years in higher education, I take liberty to make few comments regarding medical education system in our country. Indian doctors are world class and second to none. They have magic in their fingers. India needs more doctors. But we have made medical education costly, lengthy and difficult. No wonder thousands of eligible students who are not selected in need go abroad to countries where medical education is affordable and admissions is easier. Is there a solution to the problem? Yes, provided authorities have willing to change their mindsets. National Medical Commission should evolve the age old practice of family medical family doctor and prepare a four year course which is a short course for our students. And this course should also be available to nurses by giving them a short course. Sir, for the first time in history you have made very remarkable and significant reforms in education, the ranking of university golden. Sir, for the first time in the history of education, ranking of university related autonomy to good university and path breaking national education policy. In 1897 Swami Vivekananda predicted that 21st century will be India century and India will be Jagatguru. I feel that his prediction will come through only innovative education. We should now turn to the rich heritage of ancient Indian knowledge system. We should have fusion of eastern wisdom and western dynamism. We, the Vasudeva Kutumbakam is the USP of India. We should imaginatively incorporate it in all levels of education. Our education should produce global citizen Vishwamanao. It will be the main endeavour of Symbiosis to realize the concept of Vasudeva Kutumbakam through education. Modi ji, I am now 87. I am sitting in the departure lounge of airport waiting for my flight. I do not know the timing. One thing is certain, my soul will hover over Symbiosis forever. My only prayer to God is, my only prayer to God is, my only prayer to God is, I will be reborn as a teacher to shape the destiny of students. Jai Hind, Jai Maharaj, Jai Jagat. I request the Prime Minister of India to present his Symbiosis Aarugya Dham to us. A momentous occasion as we celebrate 50 golden years of the illustrious educational journey of Symbiosis. The establishment of the Symbiosis Aarugya Dham during this golden year is indeed a very proud moment for the entire Symbiosis family. Keep the applause going please. World renowned multicultural, multilingual and multidisciplinary educational institution with a vibrant history. Symbiosis has consistently set new benchmarks in its three avatars of culture, education and health. Symbiosis truly embodies honourable Prime Minister Shrinarendra Modi's transformative vision, manifest in the country's national education policy that aims to create global citizens with Indian values, which has also been the focus of Symbiosis throughout its illustrious journey of 50 years. Inspired by the vision of our honourable Prime Minister and the untiring efforts of Dr. S. B. Mujandar, Symbiosis International University has established Symbiosis Aarugya Dham over a sprawling 70-acre campus at Loveley, announced to the world by the magnificent Symbiosis Swarna Mahotsav Dwar and ushering in a new era of holistic and integrative medicine. Symbiosis Medical College for Women, the first residential medical college for women in Maharashtra and the Symbiosis University Hospital and Research Centre are dedicated to serving humanity, especially marginalised communities in line with the motto of Ayushman Bharat. Symbiosis Aarugya Dham houses institutions dedicated to diverse disciplines such as health sciences, biological sciences, nursing, health skills, sports sciences, emotional well-being, yoga and specialised research. Symbiosis Aarugya Dham strives to provide affordable, available and accessible medical and healthcare services. The various pathies such as allopathy, homeopathy, naturopathy, yoga, ayurveda and other alternative medicines have been brought under one umbrella at Symbiosis Aarugya Dham. To take healthcare to people's doorsteps, Symbiosis International University has now commissioned a new mobile medical unit to serve as many as 23 villages in the Mulsi block, providing impetus to rural health literacy and primary healthcare. Inspired by Honourable Prime Minister Srinarendra Modi's Pradhan Mantri Grameen Digital Saksharta Abhiyan, Symbiosis International University has conceptualised and created a rural digital literacy lab to enable rural communities to unlock the power of the internet to improve their daily lives. The identity of Symbiosis International University has acquired many hues and dimensions over the decades. But the world was, is and will always be its family. Vasudhaiva Putumbhakram Mr. Sai Ji, East University's Founder-President, Professor S. B. Majumdar Ji, Principal Director, Dr. Vidya E. Rautkekar Ji, Dr. Vidya E. Rautkekar Ji, Principal Director, Dr. Vidya E. Rautkekar Symbiosis has reached its golden jubilee. How many people are involved in this journey? There is a common destiny of many people. The students who studied here adopted the vision and values of Symbiosis and recognized Symbiosis through their success. Symbiosis is the greatest contribution in this journey. I have received the opportunity to congratulate all the professors, all the students and all the alumni on this golden moment of the R.O.Gyadham Complex. For this new beginning, I wish to congratulate the entire Symbiosis family. You are a part of such an institute that is based on the idea of Vasudhaiva Putumbhakram. Symbiosis is a university where there are different courses on Vasudhaiva Putumbhakram. This is our tradition, our culture, our culture. I am happy that this tradition is still alive in our country. I have been told that in the last Symbiosis, more than 44,000 students of 85 countries study here. They share their culture, that is, the ancient heritage of India is moving forward even today. Friends, today this institution is representing the generation in front of which there are infinite opportunities. Today, our country is among the largest economies in the world. The third largest hub of the world is the start-up ecosystem in our country. Start-up India, stand-up India, make-in India and the mission of the Atmanirbhar Bharat are representing your aspirations. Today's India is innovating, improving and influencing the whole world. People living in Pune know very well that India has shown its strength in front of the whole world with the coronavirus vaccine. Now, you are also seeing the time of the Ukraine crisis, how the operation is going on and India is taking its citizens out of the war zone safely. There are many problems in the world's major countries. But, the impact of India is that we have brought thousands of weapons back to our country. Friends, your generation is lucky that it did not have to face the first defensive and dependent psychological damage. But, if this increase has come in the country, then the first credit of it goes to all of you, to our youth, to our youth. Now, as you can see, in the sectors in which the country was not even thinking about moving forward on its own feet. In those sectors, India is now on the path to becoming a global leader. For example, we have a mobile manufacturing example. A few years ago, we had a mobile manufacturing example and we did not know how many electronics we had. We had only one meaning, import it. In the world, there is a market, import it from anywhere. In the defense sector, we had been accepting that we can do something with the trust of the other country. But today, the situation has also changed, but the situation has also changed. In mobile manufacturing, India is the second largest country in the world. Seven years ago, India had only two mobile manufacturing companies. Today, more than 200 manufacturing units lie in this work. In the defense sector, India is the world's largest importer country. Today, the defense sector is becoming an exporter. Today, two big defense corridors are being built in the country, where they will become the largest manufacturing company. They will fulfill the needs of the country. Friends, in the next 75 years, we are moving forward with the new goals of a new India. Our young generation has to do the same. Today, from the software industry to the health sector, from AI and AR to automobile and EV, from quantum computing to machine learning, new models are being built in every field. In the country, geospatial systems, from drones to semiconductors, and from space technology, reforms are taking place. These reforms are not to be recorded by the government. These reforms have come with an opportunity for you. And I can say that these reforms are for you and for the young generation. Whether you are in the technical field, management field or medical field, I believe that all these opportunities are being created for you. The government in the country believes in the surrender of the youth of the country. That is why we are waiting for you in different sectors. Take advantage of these opportunities. Do not wait. You start your start-ups. The challenges of the country, the local problems, should be solved by the universities, or the minds of the young generation. Always remember that you are in a field where you set goals for your career. Similarly, you should have goals for the country. If you are in the technical field, then how can your innovations and your work be useful to the country? Can you develop such a product that will help the farmers of the village? Can students help in remote areas? Similarly, if you are in the medical field, then how can our health infrastructure be strengthened? How can quality health services be available in the villages? You can plan a new start-up together with tech friends. Similarly, the region where the symposium has started can be useful as a model for the whole country. When I am talking about health, I will also tell you that you should take care of your fitness as well. You are laughing a lot. Not now. You are joking. You are laughing a lot. And take the country to a new level. When our goals increase from personal growth to a national growth, then in the national level, the sense of belonging increases. Friends, when you are celebrating your 50th birthday at your university, then I would like to request the Symbiosis family and not just the people sitting here, I would also like to request you. Can we develop a tradition in Symbiosis that every year, a theme is dedicated to it? And whoever is here, in any field, they should be dedicated to their work for a year for a theme, that should be dedicated to it. If you agree with me now, that when you are building a Golden Jubilee, then in the next 5 years, in the next 5 years, what will be the theme of 2022? What will be the theme of 2023? What will be the theme of 2027? Can we still make a decision? And as I am telling you in one theme, it is not necessary that we should go on this theme. We should make our own decisions. But think about it. Let's take a global warming issue. Our family came to Pugra in 2022. We should focus on every aspect of global warming. We should do research on it. We should do seminars on it. We should make cartoons on it. We should write poems on it. We should write poems on it. We should make some equipment on it. That is, while doing everything else, we should take a unique job. We should take a theme. We should wake up people too. In the same way, what is our coastal area today, or we can work on the impact of climate change on the ocean. Such a theme can be that our border is for today's development. What is our last village, which is protected by our border, with the army, and with the help of the army, is still alive and alive. In a way, the generation after generation is the protection of our country. That we are in the family of the university. What can be the plan for our border development? For this, students of the university should tour that area. They should understand the problems there. They should come here and sit and chat. They should find solutions. Your university, in order to strengthen the feeling of India, the dream of Vasudev Kuttum Kambi is also there. When India is the dreamer of India. The university, in one area, and in the other, can learn a lot of languages. It will be better. You can keep in mind that when Simbarshi's language will come out of here, then in Marathi, five different languages of India, at least 100 languages, 100 words, will be remembered for sure. And in life, its use will be destroyed. The history of our independence, is so strong. You can do digital work on any aspect of this history. In the youth of the country, like the NSS, like the NCC, we can increase the number of people. This can also help the entire family. For example, water security, agriculture, technology, soil health testing, food products, storage, and natural farming. You have research, to increase awareness. There are a lot of topics. What will be the topic? I will leave it to you. But I will definitely say that the needs of the country, the solutions to the problems of the country, you choose your own issues so that we, all the young people, all the young minds, have such a big infrastructure, we give solutions to the country. And I am giving you a guarantee that you share your suggestions and experiences with the government. After working on these themes, you can send your research, your results, your ideas, your suggestions, to the Prime Minister. I am sure that when the professors here, the faculty here, the students here, will be a part of this discussion, then there will be great results. Now imagine, today you are celebrating for 50 years, when you celebrate for 75 years, and for 25 years for the country, on the 25th theme, 50,000 or 50,000 minds have worked, you will give such a big support to the country. And I understand that it will be of great benefit to the Symbiosis students. Finally, I would like to say one more thing to the students of Symbiosis. Staying in this country, you will have learned a lot from your professors, teachers, and friends. I suggest you that self-awareness, innovation and risk-breaking ability are always made strong. I hope that all of you will move forward in your life and I also believe that for 50 years you will have such an experience that you have. While doing many experiments you have reached here. You have a treasure. This treasure will also help the country. You will have fruits, flowers and every child who comes here to make their future with self-confidence. This is my good news for you. Once again, I would like to thank you that I get many opportunities to come here. But I cannot come here. I am sure that I will get many opportunities to come here. I am very grateful to all of you for giving me the opportunity to be a part of this new generation. Thank you very much. Thank you very much. Thank you very much. Thank you very much. Thank you very much. Thank you very much.
