VC VBU Professor Ramesh Sharan, PVC VBU Dr. Kunul Kandir, Registrar Dr. BP Rukhaiyar and HOD PG Economics of VBU cum Secretary of the college Dr. Sajal Mukherjee were the guests and speakers of this seminar.
Addressing the gathering Professor Sharan first congratulated the office bearers of college student union for organizing a seminar on such a current topic and remembered his college days when student organizations used to organize seminars on relevant topics and thanked them for their attempt of restoring back the old glorious tradition.
Professor Sharan started his talk on the topic with an information that the website of VBU is not working today due to problem in BSNl server. He said that due to lack of foresightedness and some other causes which are known to everybody the present communication system of entire country is dependent on the products of China.
The relation between China and India was good in ancient times and British empires are responsible for the current relationship. In 1947 we were on the same platform but today we are lagging behind.
Giving data of trade deficit and other economic aspect ProfessorSharan said that India can cope up with the challenges of China or other rival countries only on the basis of its youth force but it is unfortunate that we are not yet providing facilities to our youth. He said that the muscle, money and mind are the parameters of power so we should invest more and more to develop the mind of our youths, to provide opportunities to them to earn money and become powerful.
PVC Dr. Kunul Kandir said that our two neighbors, China and Pakistan, have now joined hands, which is dangerous and we are still fighting with each other on the name of religion, caste, language etc. The need of the hour is that we should leave these evils behind and follow the motto of ‘India First’ to meet with the challenges.
Registrar Dr. BP Rukhaiyar, who was a teacher of Annada College till last month, said that Sino-Indian relationship needs to be viewed in geo-political scenario.
