"There is no substitute to hard work and only through hard work they can rise in life. Children have to set themselves goals and strive hard to achieve them," an official release quoted Kovind as saying at the event.
Children should be satisfied with whatever they have and always think positive. They should aspire to reach the top and there is no shortcut to reach there, he said. The president said no goal is difficult to reach if there is a will to achieve it, Kovind said.
Kovind advised children to learn Hindi and said he knew of several leaders who found it difficult to communicate with the people of other states because of lack of knowledge of the language.
Telangana Governor E S L Narasimhan and Deputy Chief Ministers Mohammed Ali and K Srihari later accompanied the president during his visit to the school located in the Raj Bhavan premises.
Later, he paid rich tributes to Lord Buddha at a statue erected in his memory here and left for New Delhi, ending his two-day visit to the city.
