CHITRAKOOT: President Ram Nath Kovind on Monday exhorted students to set up their own business ventures and create employment opportunities.
“I will be more happy when students set up their own ventures and create employment opportunities for others,” Kovind said at the convocation of the Jagadguru Rambhadracharya Handicapped University at Chitrakoot in Uttar Pradesh.

The President also observed the projects implemented by the Deendayal Research Institute, which houses ‘Aarogydham’, an official statement said. Madhya Pradesh governor O P Kohli and MP chief minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan welcomed Kovind on his arrival in Chitrakoot.
