With more than 60 crore people under the age of 30, India’s young population is a major strength that reflects the nation’s energy, enthusiasm, and motivation. With the current pace and direction of development, he emphasized that India is on an unstoppable path of growth.
Referring to the recently held AI summit in Delhi as a masterstroke, he said it helped change the perception that artificial intelligence would reduce job opportunities. Instead, AI will play a significant role in shaping India’s future and strengthening its global image. AI has become a major area of focus for today’s youth and will support development in sectors such as healthcare, agriculture, and urban management, including traffic systems. We must move past the fear that AI will replace jobs, emphasizing that Indian youth are as capable and talented as young people anywhere in the world. Start-ups and MSMEs, he noted, are already doing remarkable work and contributing significantly to innovation and economic growth.
Ramanpreet, Chairman, PIBM said that skilled education can create numerous job opportunities and enhance employability. Young people can either work in companies or start their own ventures. To create something meaningful, one needs a clear vision, disciplined thinking toward goals, and a strong sense of purpose. If we remain committed to this path even in the face of failures, we can eventually achieve our goals.
At a time when lakhs of students with strong skills and similar competencies are graduating, what truly sets an individual apart is persistence and the determination to continuously grow. To progress in life, we must have a clear vision and purpose. This vision should be supported by strong willpower, discipline, and dedicated hard work. When we follow this path, it not only helps us succeed but also benefits others and contributes positively to the community.
