Prof. Kanchan Mahendru also stressed upon the importance of dedicating oneself to the cause of society and of providing selfless service to those in need. Adding to that, Prof. Jasmeet said that we cannot expect the society to change by condemning it alone, the need is to get up and do something about it.
