Speaking on the occasion AU VC Prof Sangita Srivastava said that the teacher is the builder of the nation. Scholarly and loving behavior towards students is what makes a teacher great. Recalling the old teachers of AU, Prof Manmohan Krishna said that even when we (AU) had less resources, many teachers did world class work. He said that if there is a passion to work and the passion to achieve the goal, then the mountain also gives way.
On this occasion Prof LDS Yadav said that he has also worked for a short time in many foreign universities, but the attachment he has with AU is not with any other university.
