"I believe, management students should have a scientific outlook and look out for brighter opportunities to step forward in life," he said. Shah, an alumnus of the institute, said, "I congratulate the parents of the graduating batch. I also congratulate students for putting in great efforts and dedication. India is an Industrial destination which is looking forward for the innovation and ideas that this generation has for its growth.
