Prime Minister Pushpa Kamal Dahal 'Prachanda' has said it is essential for Tribhuvan University (TU) to cultivate will power and determination to navigate challenges posed by globalization in the 21st century. He advised the TU to ensure a quality improvement to address the challenges in the globalized world market.
Addressing the 49th Convocation Ceremony of Tribhuvan University at the local Dasharath Stadium today, PM and University Chancellor Dahal said, "The pressure put by the globalized world market has gone out of control and time demands us to find out obstructions in producing globally competent human resources and address this gap."
According to him, it is necessary to review question about 'diminishing faith' in the institution.
"Why the roles of TU academicians have not been significant," he questioned, adding that the lack of an implementation of academic calendar in TU and frequent obstructions in its business including teaching-learning activities are the matters of concern. "Who are responsible for all these," he said.
"We are advocating for non-politicized and independent academic institutions while at the same time we are running for personal gains over the TU," he said, adding that each citizens should have opportunities to receive quality education in an accessible way.
Urging the University leadership to take efforts to ensure that it provides quality education, he added that the government is already to play a guardianship role towards that end.
He hoped that fresh TU graduates would utilize their skills, knowledge for the cause of the society, wishing them a successful life with the sense of responsibility and integrity.
He took time to say that economic indicators have improved following the one-year's tremendous efforts. However, expected results are yet to be achieved, he said, hoping a wider support and cooperation from each quarter including intellectual youth circle of life to the government's 'genuine efforts' for the betterment.
