The alumni of Aligarh Muslim University (AMU) walked down the memory lane in their first in-person homecoming since the pandemic as they reconnected with their alma mater in the World Alumni Meet-2022 at the Kennedy Hall Auditorium here.
Addressing the students in the inaugural function, chief guest and former UPSC Chairman D.P. Agarwal said: “Our alumni are spread all over the world. Certainly living and working in the G7 and G25 countries is a matter of pride, but we must also serve in places where a lot of development needs to be done. “In India, we have reached a juncture in our growth, where nobody from any background lags behind. In this amazing era, youngsters must learn from the experiences of high achievers.”
Speaking on the contributions of AMU alumni, he pointed out: “Our alumni have immensely contributed to the alma mater. Our network is large. Imagine networks of each batch and each discipline across the many years of this university’s existence. These vast resources have to come together for the common cause of our alma mater, community, the nation, and the world at large”.
He urged the present day students to look for role models from the illustrious list of AMU alumni and to learn from their life stories.
