He also stated that anyone can become doctors and engineers when proper guidance and advice is given. He requested Prof K Byrappa to advise the topper so that he can be a national asset. “Students are the ones who build brand image”. He insisted students to take the right career decision. He said that Ranjan should become a role model to the country.

B S Ranjan shared his opinion and his future aim in life. He said that everyone must cope up with competition and put in their own efforts. “Life is just like a road hump and we must know to balance everything”. He advised students not to be stressed when they fail. His goal in life is to become an IAS officer or MBBS, that is how he can serve the nation and his parents. He also added that he wants to stand on his own and needs outside exposure.

Ramesh, Syndicate Member, Kuvempu University said that he has become the hero of Karnataka through his achievement. He is a role model for students. He wished all the best for his future. He also added that he has to do well in his future. He praised the institution and innovative ideas of the Chairman.

Prof. K Byrappa, Vice-Chancellor of Mangalore University, gave his presidential speech. “It’s a great achievement since it is impossible to obtain full marks. Students have the gift of grasping subjects which makes them achieve good marks. This made history. To succeed in life, one should have a goal and work hard to achieve it. Teacher’s play a very important role in moulding students, he said, advising the faculty to motivate students to think creatively. Students should also have the curiosity to learn new things, he added.

Principal Dr U M Bhushi delivered the vote of thanks. He said Vice-chancellor has delivered a significant message to B S Ranjan that will help take him to greater heights. He advised Rajan not to lose interest in enjoying education, happiness, at the cost of marks.
