As many as 57 university and college teachers pertaining to a wide spectrum of disciplines from across the country participated in the Course.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Prof. S.S. Dhillon, Registrar was the Chief Guest. Prof. Dhillon in his valedictory address enlightened the participants about the paramount importance of such courses not only for the advancement in their careers, but also in broadening their horizons. Expressing his deep concern over the gradual deterioration of the environment, he said that the entire humanity needs to put in its best to preserve the nature for the posterity. And sooner, the better. Prof. Dhillon incorporated the current topic of hot discussion of &#8216;Demonetization&#8217; in his valedictory address and shed light on its pros and cons. The monetary policy is the exclusive responsibility of the Reserve Bank of India, whereas the fiscal policy has to be decided by the government of the day, he emphasized. This move has been causing tremendous hardships to the countrymen without no fault of theirs because the necessary homework, perhaps, was not done by the mandarains at the helm of affairs. Whether this move achieves the goals perceived by the goverment or not lies in the womb of the future, he concluded.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Dr. Jatinder Kaur, Deptt. of Botanical &amp; Environmental Sciences, GNDU, Amritsar and the Coordinator briefly summarized the contents of the Course. Prof. Amarjit Singh Sidhu, Director, UGC-Human Resource Development Centre felicitated the participants on the successful completion of the course. The regular upgradation of the knowledge by the teachers has become an imperative in the present world in view of the rapid changes taking place in various disciplines, he emphasized. Gone are the days, when the teaching fraternity used to confine themselves to their respective disciplines only, he further said. On the contrary, it is incumbent upon them to broaden their expertise by interacting with the other disciplines, he added. The participants of the Course expressed their deep gratitude to the organizers for this venture, which, they described as one of the best academic experiences. Earlier the Chief Guest was accorded a floral welcome by Prof. Amarjit Singh Sidhu, Dr. Mohan Kumar and Dr. Jatinder Kaur. In the end, certificates were given away to the successful participants. Dr. Mohan Kumar proposed the vote of thanks.<\/p>\n<p><strong>\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u00a0 Amritsar, December 16 (Punjab Post Bureau)\u2013\u00a0A &#8220;Three-Week Refresher Course in Environmental Studies (ID)&#8221; concluded at the UGC-Human Resource Development Centre of Guru Nanak Dev University.
