He also quoted author Robin Sharma, who stated the purpose of Education is 'enlightenment'.

Appreciating the D Ed Students for choosing teaching field, Mr. Karnik said that most of the people today do not wish to enter into the fields like military, politics or teaching as the two most favourite fields of new generation are medical and engineering.

He said that in teaching profession, people would get happiness and peace.
