Desh Bhagat University today became the first university of the country
by making Mount Everest climber Ram Lal Sharma its Youth Ambassador and
honouring him at its campus for entering his name among the top
achievers of the country by scaling the Mount Everest at such a young
age. Mr. Ram Lal has now set himself on a daunting mission of
undertaking the seven-continent summit expedition, never undertaken by
an Indian. Coming from a very humble background, Ram Lal, the son of a
fruit seller, is also a part of the Colors Channel's "Mission Sapne"
series. Ram Lal's summit climb is a part of his initiative of World
Peace Seven expedition. He embarks on his second summit climb of the
expedition to Mount Elbrus in the month of July and thus, he will become
one of the youngest Indians to scale the Mount Elbrus of Europe. The
other peaks that he will scale subsequently are Cerro Aconcagua (South
America), Mckinley (Denali, North America), Mount Kilimanjaro (Africa),
Mount Vinson (Antarctica) and Carstenz Pyramid (Australia). After this
particular achievement, he will not only become the youngest Indian ever
to scale seven continents of the world but also the only Indian to
achieve this feat. Greatly enthused by the honour showered on him by
Desh Bhagat University in his initiative, Ram Lal says this is the first
educational institution which has supported an effort which is not only
inspiring for the youth but also a matter of pride for every Indian. He
feels that this university is truly dedicated to educate the youth of
today as opposed to the recent trend of leading the youth towards
glamour industry. Carrying the flag of Desh Bhagat University to all
seven peaks, Ram Lal says that DBU will be the first university in India
to scale heights in its efforts and commitment to the nation.
Announcing Ram Lal as one of the youth ambassadors and congratulating
him, Dr. Zora Singh, Chancellor Desh Bhagat University, said the
University wants to create and support role models for the youth of the
nation. He said the university is completely dedicated to providing
quality education to masses. Congratulating Ram Lal on his efforts and
wishing him all success, Pro Chancellor Tajinder Kaur said that Ram Lal
will also be interacting with the university students regularly,
sharing his experience of the summit climb and thus inspiring the youth
to dream high, think high and attain heights in life. Pro Vice
Chancellor Dr. Shalini Gutpa applauded Mr. Ram Lal's achievement and
spirit of adventure saying that the decision to make him the
university's youth ambassador has been taken to motivate his indomitable
spirit and to encourage the youth to think and dream big. Registrar Dr.
Virinder Singh also congratulated Mr. Sharma on his achievement and
conveyed him his best wishes for the success of his forthcoming mission.
