He said that new building also houses the growing social sciences departments which are vital for the development of any society in preparing people for leadership.
“Where would Pakistan be without our poets and philosophers? Without philosophical thoughts and reflection on society, a country cannot develop,” he observed.

“We are educating many of tomorrow’s top business leaders who will be successful like those of your present on the occasion,” he said.
