Diversity is important for universities like RGU, and the celebration of diversity is what leads to unity. I am against uniformity, because it makes you dull whereas unity is like&nbsp;colours&nbsp;of the rainbow. We need to bring the local to the national and connect it to the global.\u201d&nbsp;Students must understand this. Learn from your teacher, nothing can replace the classroom, she further said.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"s8\">Prof. Pandit also spoke&nbsp;about gender and equality,&nbsp;and&nbsp;said that&nbsp;Men are not enemies of women empowerment, rather than they&nbsp;have played the role of&nbsp;reformers.&nbsp;\u201cIt\u2019s&nbsp;all about balance and harmony. I would rather say that India is a feminist civilization, and Draupadi (from The Mahabharata) is the first feminist. We need to have a much more comprehensive view of gender in India\u201d.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"s8\">Speaking on NEP 2020,&nbsp;the JNU Vice Chancellor stated, \u201cNEP&nbsp;is a&nbsp;much-needed&nbsp;educational reform because in 36 years we had no reform.&nbsp;At JNU we are allowing every school to take whatever is very good as a framework.&nbsp;I would rather say,&nbsp;every 10 years,&nbsp;we should go for reforms because education is a very vital sector. India&nbsp;aspires&nbsp;to be a knowledge power.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>JNU VC Prof.&nbsp;Santishree&nbsp;Pandit&nbsp;addresses students and faculty&nbsp;members&nbsp;at&nbsp;Assam&nbsp;Royal Global University\u201d GUWAHATI, May 29, 2025:&nbsp;Intelligence has become artificial, but stupidity is original.
