The special Delhi University degree, which will be awarded to more than 2.25 lakh students in February, will for the first time include a coloured image of the students and their mother's names.
Delhi University degree certificates will now come with more than a dozen "currency-like" security features such as a hidden image, invisible ink logo, and micro text to make them "nearly impossible" to forge, an official said on Monday.
The special degree, which will be awarded to more than 2.25 lakh students during DU's centenary convocation in February, will for the first time include a coloured image of the students and their mother's names.
"These special degrees will be nearly impossible to forge as they will have over a dozen security features like the ones present in currency notes. The quality of the paper is also being enhanced to make it 100 per cent water, heat, and electricity resistance thereby making them everlasting," Ajay Arora, Officer on Special Duty, Examination, told PTI.
