Karnataka Law Society’s Raja Lakhamgouda Law College organised its gymkhana valedictory and awards ceremony recently. Deputy Commissioner of Police Rohan Jagadeesh gave away prizes and addressed students.
Mr. Jagadeesh said that various challenges of life demand hard work and determination and that all of us should be ready for single-minded dedication and hard work.
“Though it seems common wisdom that people work hard for material gains, they do not last. The biggest prize in life is happiness so be happy in your achievements. Life will be difficult as we grow older and we should be ready for further challenges like physical and mental fatigue. New challenges of adaptation also demand more hard work. But then, the earlier we understand that the aim of our work should be happiness, the better it is for us and others,” he said.
The young IPS officer, who is a lawyer by training, gave tips to young people to brush up their soft skills.
Member of the college governing council R.S. Mutalik advised students to follow six qualities of eminent advocates. They are subject, hard-study, client relationship, communication, conveyancing and drafting. He stated that chief examination and cross-examination are an art that will help one establish legal practice.
