Vice President Jagdeep Dhankhar on Thursday said corruption and patronage are the worst killers of young innovative minds, and antithetical to merit and stability.
바카라śYoung people hate corruption because they feel cheated by nepotism and favouritism," Dhankhar emphasised.
The vice president made this remark after laying the foundation stone for the boys hostel of the Delhi University's Hindu College as part of its 125th year anniversary celebrations.
Lauding recent reforms in the governance ecosystem, Dhankhar said, "Power corridors have now been fully sanitised of corrupt elements and a transparent, accountable system is in place. Now is a time when meritocracy prevails and youth can aspire and fulfill their dreams and fully exploit their potential."
바카라śEquality before law is the most inalienable feature quintessential to democratic governance,바카라ť he stressed in his address.
Referring to the recent developments, the vice president said, 바카라śNow no one is above the law, the long arm of law is reaching to everyone particularly to those who never thought they will be held accountable to law.
Asserting the importance of respecting rule of law, Dhankhar said, 바카라śRespect for law is respect for nationalism, respect for law is respect for democracy and respect for law is respect for meritocracy, respect for law is curbing corruption.바카라ť
