The Vice President of Inia, C. P. Radhakrishnan today addressed the 58th Foundation Day celebrations of the Institute of Company Secretaries of India (ICSI) at Bharat Mandapam, New Delhi.
Extending his greetings to the entire ICSI fraternity, he commended the Institute for its nearly six-decade journey in strengthening transparent, ethical and inclusive corporate governance.
Radhakrishnan said the transformation of the Institute mirrors the evolution of the profession, which today has an important role in strengthening corporate transparency, investor confidence and India’s standing in the global economy.
In an era shaped by Artificial Intelligence, advanced data analytics and rapidly evolving business models, the Vice-President called upon Company Secretaries, as “Guardians of Governance,” to uphold the legal, strategic and ethical foundations of India Inc. “Technology may transform the manner in which information is generated and decisions are supported, but integrity, accountability, transparency and responsibility remain human,” he said.
Describing trust, transparency and corporate governance as the “invisible infrastructure” of a modern economy, C. P. Radhakrishnan said investor confidence is essential for sustained economic progress. Company Secretaries, he noted, are at the centre of this architecture and play a vital role in enabling enterprises, start-ups, family businesses and listed companies to grow responsibly.
President, ICSI, C.S. Pawan Chandak; former Member of Parliament, Rajya Sabha, Dr. Sonal Mansingh; and Secretary, ICSI, C.S. Asish Mohan were also present on the occasion.
