Always keep national interest foremost; serve the country with pride, emphasises VP

Vice-President, Jagdeep Dhnakhar today called upon the cadets at Rashtriya Military College (RIMC), Dehradun to vindicate their institution’s motto-Bal Bibek and cultivate strength and wisdom so that they can fight the bigger battles of life. “Strength and Conscience makes a formidable combination that generates impregnability when challenged”, he added.

Stressing on the need for keeping the national interest first in all situations, the VP said “Serve the country with pride and fearlessness! Bharat-Mata beckons you. The nation’s future rests on your shoulders. Always keep national interest foremost. Your conduct must exemplify discipline, decorum and empathy”, Dhankhar added.

Addressing the cadets at RIMC in Dehradun today, the Vice-President urged the alumni and the RIMC fraternity to act as a think tank and imbibe in the youth a spirit of nationalism and take all steps to neutralise anti-national pernicious designs who are disconnected from the ground reality and not acknowledging the phenomenal economic growth, great developmental journey and the unprecedented rise of Bharat at the global stage.

erming fear of failure as the worst killer of growth Dhankhar, called upon the cadets to “never fear failure in life, it is a stepping stone to success. Fear of fear impedes exploitation of your talent and realisation of your potential. Always remember, fear is a necessary component of our growth journey”.

Referring to the success story of Chandrayaan Mission, he narrated, “Think of the historic Chandrayaan missions! Chandrayaan 2 largely succeeded but not fully. For some it was failure and for the wise ones it was a step towards success. And we all noticed on August 23 last year Chandrayan 3 landed on the south pole of the moon, and with this Bharat became the first nation attaining this feat.

Praising the admission of girls in RIMC and Sainik schools, Dhankhar said that these actions reflect remarkable affirmative strides for gender equality and justice. “Our women are steering combat aircrafts, they are at the helm of space missions, and are shattering every possible glass ceiling imaginable. Reservation for women in Lok Sabha and State Legislatures to the extent of one third will certainly be game changer”, VP added

Lt. Gen Gurmeet Singh, Governor Uttarakhand, Col. Rahul Agarwal, Commandant Rashtriya Indian Military College, cadets, faculty members and other dignitaries were also present on the occasion.
