People or dignitaries
may come and go; but the system will continue to always say NO.

| Dr. Pranab Mukherjee |
His Excellency Dr. Pranab Mukherjee, Hon’ble President of Indian Republic was on his two-day visit to the hilly state of Himachal Pradesh. He was
here to address Himachal Pradesh Vidhan Sabha which is celebrating its 50th
Anniversary. He was also the chief guest at the 20th Convocation of
Himachal Pradesh University. He inaugurated the Tagore Gallery at All India
Institute of Advanced Studies followed by a visit to Barnes Court (Governor’s
House). Some members of student organizations in HPU campus could be seen
chatting that the President is an Ex-corrupt politician himself and had no
moral right to be the chief guest for the convocation. Had the police cantonment
not been there in HPU, we would have shown black flags to the President and agitated
against his visit. Whatever may the entire lot think about his visit to HPU, as
far as an individual like me is concerned, I feel extremely privileged and
honoured to have him in our campus. The President of India, by virtue of his
position and not his personification, is the topmost person of our country.
