The Governor was addressing the convocation ceremony of Bahra University in Solan district today. On this occasion, he conferred degrees upon 577 students.
The Governor said that the occasion marked not merely the completion of an academic journey but also the beginning of a new phase filled with opportunities, challenges and responsibilities.

While congratulating the graduating students, the Governor acknowledged the contribution of parents and teachers in their achievements. He appreciated Bahra University’s growth since its establishment in September 2010 under the Bahra Educational and Charitable Society. With 10 schools, 16 departments and over 60 programmes, the university has emerged as leading centre of education and research, catering to around 4,000 students.
