The University Grants Commission (UGC) is planning to celebrate with gusto Deendayal Upadhyaya’s birth centenary and the 125th anniversary of Swami Vivekananda’s address at the Chicago Parliament of the World’s Religions. The UGC has asked all vice-chancellors and heads of higher education institutions in the country to make arrangements so that students can watch Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s address to the nation on September 11. A UGC circular has instructed that the event be “propagated effectively and interested students obtain the facility to view such a significant programme that could be life-changing”.
