By On 22nd November 2025, I had the privilege of attending the Convocation Ceremony of Vignan Jyothi Institute of Management as the Chief Guest. It was an honour to address an audience comprising Suresh Babu garu, Harishchandra Prasad garu, Durga Prasad garu, the Director, respected faculty members, proud parents, and of course, the graduating students.
The occasion was not only inspiring but also deeply nostalgic for me. It has been 48 years since I graduated from IIM Ahmedabad in 1977, and being invited in this capacity reminded me of the enduring value of education and the joy of witnessing new beginnings.
