New Delhi, July 27 (IBNS): President Pranab Mukherjee inaugurated the centenary celebrations of University of Mysore here on Monday.

Speaking on the occasion, the President recalled that University of Mysore was founded in 1916 under the patronage of 'Rajrishi' Nalwadi Krishnaraja Wadiyar with the able assistance of Diwan Sir M. Visvesvaraya.

"It's destiny has been shaped by stalwarts like the first Vice Chancellor Shri H.V. Nanjundayya, Dr. Sarvepalli Radhakrishnan, Dr. Brajendranath Seal, Dr. C.R. Reddy, Prof Thomas Denham, Prof A.R. Wadia, Prof M. Hiriyanna, Dr. K.V. Puttappa (Kuvempu) and Dr. D. Javare Gowda. Others who followed have kept the flag of this institution flying high, building on the rich legacy and moving forward with purposive action," President said.

The President said that India with two-third of her 1.25 billion people below 35 years of age can become one of the front ranking nations in the world.

The President said that the Indian universities must promote scientific temper amongst students.
