He said that the Centre’s flagship programmes of ‘Atmanirbhar Bharat’ and ‘Startup India’ are intended to make the country self-reliant and to catalyse a startup culture to build a strong and inclusive ecosystem for innovation and entrepreneurship in the country. He said India has now become one of the biggest startup hubs in the world and the success rate of start-ups in India is relatively higher than the rest of the world. He presented degrees and medals to the students and congratulated them on receiving their degrees and medals in the convocation.
