He encouraged the graduates to maintain humility, compassion, and commitment as they navigate their professional lives.

Longkumer advised the new graduates to focus on developing practical life skills and technical proficiency to stay competitive in a changing global landscape. He reminded them that discipline and personal integrity are essential components of long-term success, urging them to take personal responsibility for their futures rather than seeking excuses.
