Addressing the ceremony, VC Dr Mujahid Kamran said that illiterate nations were bound to destroy and dominated by literate nations, therefore the first word of the Holy Quran "Iqra" urges the mankind to read. He said as many as 722 verses, which is 1/8 of the Holy Quran, stress for contemplation. He said the nations who ponder and think carefully before taking decisions and implementations remained successful.
Dr Kamran asked students that the education should be their first and foremost target. The VC also advised the students to follow the teachings of the Holy Quran to find Allah's consent and blessing. He said the real martyrs are those who fight against the enemies of Islam and not those who waste their lives in sectarianism. He commended the efforts of Muhammad Pervez and termed it is a good addition to religious books.
