A three-day toppers conclave concluded at the Raj Bhawan here today with Uttarakhand Governor K K Paul asking participants to attach as much importance to being sensitive as to being intelligent.
"Intelligent people who are also sensitive are more useful for the society. So you should attach as much importance to your emotional quotient (EQ) as to your intelligence quotient (IQ) and try to share and spread the knowledge you gain," he said.
The conclave may not have achieved all the objectives it had set out to achieve but the participants must have emerged a little more enlightened out of it, he said.

Held at the initiative of the Governor himself the conclave was a first of its kind to be organized in the state in which toppers of all state universities and their vice chancellors deliberated on a whole range of subjects, including academics, environment and administration.
