New Delhi, Dec 09:-- President Draupadi Murmu has said that only education can bring change to the entire nation. She was addressing the third convocation of Doon University in Dehradun today. The President said, the country is moving towards a self-reliant India, for which the commitment of the students is needed. She remarked that there is no harm in learning all the languages of the world but the mother tongue should not be forgotten. We are identified only by our mother tongue, she added.
