Deputy Superintendent of Police G. Srinivasa Rao on Thursday exhorted the students to take India-born Google CEO Sundar Pichai as their role-model.
Taking part in an anti-ragging campaign at the QISIT here, he narrated the success story of Pichai Sundararajan, a product of Indian Institute of Technology, Kharagpur, who did India proud by rising to the stature of heading the internet behemoth.
“Sundar should be the youth icon for all students,” he said in his inspiring speech to the students in an effort to wean them away from the menace of ragging.
He asked them to set high goals and strive to achieve them. They should not indulge in ragging even for the sake of fun as they would have to forgo a bright career ahead. Quoting from Bhagavad Gita, he said “we should not do anything to others that will not be liked by us when others do it to us.”
Ongole MLA Damacharla Janardhan Rao asked the seniors to mingle with juniors as friends and create a conducive atmosphere in the campus .
Telugu Nadu Students Federation (TNSF) activists performed an thought-provoking skit highlighting the menace of ragging and prodding the students to tread the right path.
QISIT correspondent and secretary N. Nageswara Rao wanted the students to feel free to raise any problems faced by them in the college campus.
