Preserve Indian values ​​and heritage, Vishweshwar Reddy tells students in Ojas

Member of Parliament from Chevella Konda Vishweshwar Reddy emphasized the importance of preserving Indian values, cultural heritage and philosophical traditions for a meaningful human life in the era of computers and artificial intelligence.

Speaking at Ojas 2k26 — a cultural and academic festival organized by Osmania University’s College of Arts and Social Sciences (OU) — he said technological advancement alone cannot ensure happiness and fulfillment.

He emphasized the growing need for liberal arts, humanities and social sciences alongside engineering and technology education. Mr Reddy said real enjoyment comes through social bonds, shared experiences and communication rather than material possessions.

College of Arts and Social Sciences Principal C. Kasim said the program aims to showcase the hidden talents of the students. He appreciated Mr. Reddy’s service and thanked the Konda Foundation for supporting the event.
