Prime Minister Narendra Modi today told students in Jammu that their real test would begin in a "big, open classroom" awaiting them outside their university, and asked them to set goals for 2022, when India celebrates 75 years of independence.

Addressing the students at a convocation at Sher-e-Kashmir University of Agricultural Sciences and Technology (SKUAST) here, Modi said: "I urge you to keep in mind 2022, and you and your university should set some goals for yourself."
He told students they "are awaiting a big, open classroom outside this university and that is where the real test lies."
Pradeep K Sharma, the university's vice chancellor, said: "It is indeed a great occasion that the prime minister is visiting the campus for the sixth convocation and has accepted the request to be the chief guest which will have a long lasting influence on students of the university."
