The Story in Brief
PM Narendra Modi told IIT Delhi graduates at the 57th convocation ceremony that they were not just collecting degrees but carrying a dream for the country. He praised engineers, calling himself the first in his bloodline to build a rocket. The speech, reported by NDTV, struck a nationalistic tone about the role of technical education in India's progress.

The 'first in my bloodline to build a rocket' line plays to the gallery of aspiration, but it also obscures a harder truth. India produces lakhs of engineers each year, yet quality placements remain a struggle for most. The real test is not the IIT Delhi convocation speech but whether the government can create enough high-skill jobs to match the degrees it celebrates. How many of today's graduates will find work that lets them actually build that rocket?
