It is imperative to keep pace with information technology since this sector has immense possibilities, the chief minister said.
He urged students to excel in their respective academic fields, adding that infotech giants like Infosys and TCS companies have already come to the state to employ several youth. Besides, Bhopal and Jabalpur will soon have electronic manufacturing clusters creating huge employment opportunities, he said.
