We are sharing this news with immense happiness and glee that IGNOU has taken a very praiseworthy move to lift the status of transgenders in Indian society. Yes, the Indira Gandhi National Open University (IGNOU) has announced that it will provide studies to all its transgender students for free.

Yes, you heard it right, for free! Means now transgender students will be able to study all courses at IGNOU without paying any fee. The Vice-Chancellor of the University, Ravindra Kumar announced the initiative during the 22nd Prof G Ram Reddy Lecture. The university holds the lecture on July 2 every year in the memory of the founding Vice Chancellor of the University Prof G Ram Reddy.

It invites eminent educationists and scholars from all around the country in order to deliver a lecture on higher education, especially in the open and distance learning domain.
