Jaipur, April 22 Lok Sabha Speaker Om Birla said on Wednesday that Rajasthan has the potential to become a leading global hub of education, attracting students from across the world.

He emphasised that this vision can be realised through collective efforts, strong determination, and self-confidence.

Birla, along with Rajasthan Assembly Speaker Vasudev Devnani, inaugurated the new campus of Jayshree Periwal Global School on Wednesday.

Both dignitaries toured the modern premises and reviewed the state-of-the-art classrooms and facilities.

Addressing the gathering, Birla noted that India's Constitution serves as a guiding light for democracies worldwide and described democracy as the nation's greatest strength.

He called upon citizens to actively contribute to shaping the narrative of a rapidly transforming India.

Vasudev Devnani described the occasion as more than just the inauguration of a building, calling it the beginning of a gateway to India's bright future.

He remarked that the campus reflects an environment where knowledge thrives.

Emphasising the broader meaning of education, Devnani said it is not limited to literacy but is a powerful force that awakens human potential and transforms individuals from ordinary to extraordinary.

Referring to India's rich academic heritage, Rajasthan Assembly Speaker highlighted ancient centres of learning such as Nalanda and Takshashila, noting that India has historically been a global centre of knowledge.

He said that despite challenges over centuries, the country's knowledge tradition has remained resilient.

"Today, under the leadership of Prime Minister Narendra Modi, India is witnessing progress across economic, cultural, and spiritual spheres and moving toward the vision of a developed nation."

Devnani urged students to stay connected with India's traditions and values while pursuing modern education.

He encouraged them to use their knowledge and skills for nation-building.

Earlier, Jayshree Periwal Global School Chairperson Jayshree Periwal welcomed the guests and shared an overview of the institution.

The event was also attended by Chief executive officer of Jayshree Periwal Group of Schools, Ayush Periwal; Principal Manju Khosla, and other distinguished guests.
