Be socially responsible

He asked to students to find solutions to the problems faced by fellow countrymen. He also stressed that no government could manage the demands of citizens. Hence, young engineers need to contribute to the society. He observed that EWB fills the gap as there is no scope in the present education system to build social responsibility.
