‘Degree means nothing in India today’: Rahul talks of ‘dard’, ‘data’ and 'daulat' at ‘Chhatron ki Goonj’ event
Rahul Gandhi said a degree certificate “means nothing in India today” because it does not lead to a job.
Congress MP Rahul Gandhi addressed a gathering of students and competitive exam aspirants at the 'Chhatron Ki Goonj' event in Prayagraj, Uttar Pradesh, on Saturday. The leader of opposition in the Lok Sabha spoke about "dard" (pain), "data", and "daulat" (wealth), expressing his belief that degree certificates mean nothing in India today.
Gandhi argued that while India boasts 40 crore youths, its greatest strength, employment opportunities are scarce, and degrees do not translate into jobs. He lamented that people's data is exploited by big companies and that reel-making has become the new addiction of the 21st century. Despite the challenges, Gandhi emphasized the youth's resilience and urged the nation to focus on providing education and employment opportunities.
