Underlining the need of moral and cultural values for students, Home Minister Rajnath Singh Friday called for promotion of education with scientific temper and skills.

Addressing a convocation of a private university here, the minister also asked students to participate in the process of nation building and contribute in making the country a developed nation of the world.

He said scientific temper and professional skills without proper value education can be dangerous.

Citing an example, the minister said that certain well qualified individuals are found indulging in terrorist and anti-national activities in the absence of cultural and moral values.
