The development of any nation relies heavily on its educational and economic growth. In today’s world, having education alone is not sufficient; one must also be skilled in a specific field to avoid facing difficulties.
Therefore, it is essential for all of us to become well-rounded individuals, or “jack-of-all-trades.” These thoughts were expressed by Mr. Amir Ali Khan, the News Editor of *Siasat Daily*, during the third annual memorial lecture in honor of Nawab Mir Osman Ali Khan Bahadur, organized by the Telangana Mahila Vishwavidyalayam (Koti Women’s College). The event was held in collaboration with the Nazir Ahmed Memorial and Educational Trust and department of Urdu.
The event featured distinguished guests, including Professor M. Kodandaram, Member of the Legislative Council, who attended as the chief guest, while Professor M. Vijjulatha, Vice-Chancellor of TMV, presided over the function.

The program was held under the auspices of Professor K. Saraswatamma, Special Officer of TMV, and witnessed participation from a large number of students and esteemed personalities. Among the honorary guests were Professor Ghanta Chakrapani, former Chairman of TPSC, Dr. Raju Naik, Associate Professor at FALU, and Dr. Mohammad Shoaib Ahmed, President of the Nazir Ahmed Memorial and Educational Trust. The program director, Dr. Syeda Nasim Sultana, Head of the Urdu Department, conducted the proceedings with great elegance.
In his address, Mr. Amir Ali Khan emphasized that the development of each individual significantly relies on ideas and creativity. He stated that the essence of personal growth lies in innovation and new ideas. According to him, in the current era, it is imperative to equip ourselves with knowledge and general awareness across various disciplines. He pointed out that mischievous children often possess extraordinary talents, but they squander their abilities through their antics. If such children receive proper guidance, they can achieve remarkable feats.
Mr. Amir Ali Khan expressed his concern regarding the moral decline within society, especially among Muslims, and stressed the need for self-improvement and correction of mistakes. He highlighted that India is the world’s largest consumer market and noted that prestigious foreign universities are increasingly turning their attention to India.
Discussing educational qualifications and employment, he noted that from 2004 to 2014, scholarships were readily available, and students would graduate as engineers expecting salaries of 20,000 rupees in their first job. After a year of dissatisfaction, many would lose hope and move to Gulf countries on a free visa. If they secured employment there, it was satisfactory; otherwise, they would return home, where parents would often hastily arrange marriages for them. This situation often leads to family problems due to a lack of employment.
He further emphasized the urgent need to promote a startup culture in society. With the increasing trend of crowdfunding, he advocated for the establishment of startup centers in various locations. He conveyed his serious commitment to the establishment of such centers, signifying a proactive approach toward fostering innovation and entrepreneurship within the community.
In conclusion, the event underscored the importance of educational advancement, skill development, and moral integrity as foundational elements for building a prosperous society. Mr. Khan’s call for a robust network of startup centers reflects a vision for economic empowerment and the promotion of creative ideas, essential for the progress of both individuals and the nation.
