00:00I'm glad to be an IITian. Proud. But the institutions must realize that what they are doing, they are fantastic
00:08at it.
00:08But they are doing only half of what they must be doing.
00:13It's like having a question paper of 100 mark, two problems of 50 marks each.
00:17Our institutional setup, including the IITs, is very good at attempting one of those two problems.
00:2350 out of 50 maybe. Wonderful. I'm glad to be an IITian. Proud.
00:27But the other question, the other 50 marks, they are not being addressed at all. Not at all.
00:32That's where we are probably getting a big zero. And that is the individual knowing himself.
00:39Who am I? What's my relationship with what I am studying? What am I doing in this campus?
00:44What is this entire big world about? How is it moving? And therefore, what is my position in it?
00:50The remaining 50 marks question. That's the thing I want to leave the audience with tonight.
00:56Thank you for hearing me. Thank you so much.
