SRINAGAR, Mar 3: 'Hindi Divas was celebrated on Tuesday with a lot of gusto and enthusiasm in Kashmir University (KU) which witnessed a number of literary activities as well as celebrations to commemorate the memorable day.
Kashmir University Vice Chancellor (VC) Talat Ahamd, who was the Chief Guest of the event, appreciated Department of Hindi for conducting it. ''It is very important occasion for the Hindi department, which he said is very old department of the university.''
'It is an honor that we are organising Hindi Divas which actually was scheduled on September 14, 2019 but due to uneasy situation could not be organised,'' he said while addressing the participants of the event at Gandhi Bhawan of the Kashmir University.
The VC stressed the need to improve the education standards and simultaneously asserted that the researches should be conducted on high note so that the students who would complete their studies from here should be known across the world.
He said it is the basic and very important job of any university to provide quality education to the students.
The VC further said education standards of any university should be very high and simultaneously researches should be conducted on high note so that students could be recognised with the name of their University from where they had completed their studies.
''Kashmir University should be known as the best in the world for its education standards and research programmes,'' the Vice Chancellor stated, adding that research papers should be published in top journals of the world.
The Vice Chancellor admires those students who read their poetry and prose in Hindi in front of well packed Gandhi Bhawan auditorium. However, he stressed upon the students to improve their pronunciation.
''I am happy that students read poetry and prose during the function but I urge them to concentrate to improve pronunciation,'' he said.
He said that there was no threat to the Hindi language in view of the vast population of our country. ''No doubt English is an international language, but one should also learn and speak Hindi,'' he further stated.
He revealed the Hindi Department of the Kashmir University would be further groomed so that it would provide better education to the students in future.
Dr Pathak and Naairah Qureshi were the competition incharges while as renowned broadcaster and poet Satish Vimal and Dr Mehraj-ud-din were the judges.
The day, which is celebrated across the country on September 14 to mark adoption of Hindi as one of the official languages, was delayed due to uneasy situation in the valley post abrogation of special status of J&K on August 5. |
