New Delhi: President Ram Nath Kovind on Wednesday praised the Jawaharlal Nehru University (JNU), saying it represents a mix of “inclusiveness, diversity, and excellence” and that Indianness is its legacy.

He addressed the fourth annual convocation of JNU through a video message stating that “Students from all parts of India and from all sections of society study at JNU in an atmosphere of equal opportunity for excellence. Students aspiring for a career path come together at JNU. The university represents a combination of inclusion, diversity, and excellence.’
