I am happy to know about the release of second volume of RIPER Pharma Newsletter from Raghavendra Institute of Pharmaceutical Education and Research. I would like to express my deep gratitude to editorial board and supported staff for their constant support and concern towards making of RIPER Pharma Newsletter which enables and encourages us to strive hard to carry forward the mission of spreading value-based knowledge to one and all in the society.

In my opinion education is the vehicle of knowledge, self-preservation and success. Education not only gives us a platform to succeed, but also the knowledge of social conduct, strength, character and self-respect. The greatest gift education gives us is the knowledge of unconditional love and a set of values. We are incomplete without a good education because education makes us right thinker and correct decision maker. In such a competitive world, education has become a necessity for human beings after food, cloth and shelter. With this in mind, we work hard to enhance every student here, at RIPER College, the transformational impact on the quality of education, introducing value-based education in order to develop personality and earn recognition and respect in the family and society.
