Reviving Nalanda: A Legacy of Knowledge Reborn

Murmu said the revival reflects a national and international commitment, as over half of graduates came from more than 30 countries.

  • On Tuesday, President Droupadi Murmu addressed the convocation ceremony at Nalanda University in Rajgir, Bihar, calling the institution's revival "a symbol of national and international commitment" to restore its glorious heritage.
  • Murmu noted the ancient Nalanda university established itself as a great center of knowledge for about eight centuries before its fall, a loss affecting not only India but the entire world.
  • Over half of this year's graduating students comprise attendees from more than 30 countries, and Murmu praised the campus for its "commitment to sustainability," stating institutions must lead by example.
  • Conferring degrees, the President emphasized students receive a "shared inheritance" of humanity; on Mahavir Jayanti, she noted how Lord Mahavir and the Buddha spread compassion from this Bihar region.
  • External Affairs Minister Jaishankar, attending the event, emphasized the university's role in shaping a multi-polar world where diverse cultures contribute to global dialogue as graduates carry India's intellectual legacy forward.
