Addressing the convocation, Yasinzai said education meant growth. “Education does not mean preparing for professional life. It means life itself,” adding that “educated bestows upon power to think with clarity, the power to act well and the power to appreciate life.”

The chief guest further said the country should have been troubled by the fact that the nation was poorly performing in education. “We are an overpopulated country with low literacy rate while the fact is that countries only develop and become rich after investing in education.”
