Speaking at the 80th Convocation of the Osmania University on Monday, Governor E.S.L. Narasimhan told the students never to forget the 3Ds in life i.e. discipline, diligence and dedication. In his opening remarks, as Chancellor of the University, the Governor offered his apologies for the delay in award of medals and degrees due to certain unfortunate circumstances.
Narasimhan said henceforth the Convocation date should become part of the academic calendar and under no circumstances convocation be postponed to next year and it should be held just like the way schedule is fixed for admissions and conduct of examinations.
