Hyderabad based NALSAR university of Law has become the India’s first educational institute to issue gender-neutral certificate to a student with an honorific Mx, instead of Mr or Ms.  Though a provisional certificate has been issued to Anindita Mukherjee as Mx Anindita Mukherjee, it is not clear if the same honorific continues in the final certificate which has to be signed by the Chief Justice of Andhra Pradesh, who is the Chancellor of the university.

The university Registrar signed the certificate after The Examination Committee endorsed all documents.

Mx Anindita, who daringly chose to declare the world her gender-neutrality, told media that choosing gender identity was her personal act.
