The University's Vice-Chancellor Faizan Mustafa said that NALSAR believes in inclusive education.
Mustafa tweeted: "I had involved students in my administration and their creative ideas have helped me in coming up with several progressive, liberal and futuristic policies."
In 2015, in the first, the NALSAR Law University had issued a gender-neutral graduation certificate to a student who did not wish to be identified with honorific Mr or Ms but with "Mx".
