FG College for Women Kashmir Road Convocation
Rawalpindi: Educated youths have the responsibility to represent Pakistan in today's world, as they are the custodians of the future of this country, said Fatima Jinnah Women University (FJWU) Vice Chancellor (VC) Dr Saeeda Asadullah Khan on Thursday.
She was addressing the 23rd Convocation of Federal Government (FG) Postgraduate College for Women, Kashmir Road, Rawalpindi.
Degrees were awarded to students who passed out in the 2006-2008 session. Spouse of Brig Raheel Ashraf, Federal Government Educational Institutions (FGEI) Cant and Garrison Director, Principal Nasreen Mirza, former Principal Shaista Zaid, faculty members, large numbers of students and parents of passed out students attended the convocation.
The VC said the youths would have to rise above the communal, societal and political differences and co-exist in an ambience of fraternity and national solidarity.
"We are aware of all covert and overt challenges to us and are taking steps to divert and diffuse them. However, I would like to point out that our peaceful and low-key stance needs not be construed as a weakness in our vigilance. We are cognizant of the challenges and more than prepared to meet them," she added.
She appreciated the standard maintained by the college not only in education but also in the co-curricular activities.
Later, the chief guest awarded degrees to the passed out students. Zile Huma, Sadia Safdar, Anam Afzal, Urooj Jamal, Fouzia Parveen and Noureen Akhtar were awarded medals and certificates of merits in different disciples. Daily times
