It gives me immense pleasure to witness a new batch of graduating students
successfully completing their academic programmes. In the unprecedented situation
prevailing this year due to the pandemic, continuing academic activities was
extremely challenging. Yet, IIT Guwahati was able to complete teaching and evaluation
of all courses in online mode. The graduating students had a unique experience
of learning half a semester virtually. The student community rose to the occasion and
extended full cooperation to our endeavour in continuing the pace of learning. I congratulate the graduating
batches for their grit and determination to face adversities in life. Their resilience against any odds will guide
them rightly as they are entering a new phase in their lives. We were not able to award degrees to graduating
students physically this year and held an online convocation with Honorable Prime Minister of India, Shri
Narendra Modi as the chief guest. However, this defining moment will be etched in IIT Guwahati’s history by
the uniqueness in which the journey of the graduating students culminated.
Although we weren't able to meet our graduating students while they were leaving us, their success resounds
around us. It is a matter of pride for us that they are on the threshold of a bright career ahead and will be
fulfilling their aspirations.
I wish all graduating students happiness and prosperity in life.
I am hopeful that they will bring laurels to their Alma Mater in their chosen path.
I look forward to seeing them evolving new initiatives in finding path breaking solutions for the benefit of the
society and mankind.
