“Ask not what your country can do for you - ask what you can do for your country,” said Vice Chancellor Prof. (Dr.) Jai Shankar Singh during his address to the RGNUL community from the Academic Block of the University on the 79th Independence Day on August 15, 2025. In his speech, he paid homage to the sacrifices of our martyrs in their struggle for independence. Further, he reiterated his resolve to develop RGNUL into an institute of intellectual empowerment through his offices. He asserted on a number of reforms being undertaken for the betterment of the student as well as teaching and non-teaching community of RGNUL.
Further, he encouraged the RGNUL community to focus on their personal growth and investment in positive intellectual affirmations that would catalyse the rise of RGNUL as an institution that upholds its motto of “Knowledge empowers”.
