Referring to the brutal gang-rape case, the President said, "When we brutalise a woman, we brutalise society".
He said in the death of the victim "we lost more than a valuable life, we lost a dream."
The President also had words of support for the young protesters who took to the streets in large numbers after the shocking incident.
"If young Indians feel outraged, can we blame our youth?" he asked in his address.
"Don't take our friendship for granted"
Sponsorship of terrorism through non-state actors is a matter of deep concern, President Pranab Mukherjee said making it clear to Pakistan that India is ready to offer a hand of friendship but that should not be taken for granted.
The President said in the recent past, serious atrocities on the line of control on Indian troops have been seen, an apparent reference to the beheading of an Indian soldier by Pakistan Army.
"Neighbours may have disagreements; tension can be a subtext of frontiers. But sponsorship of terrorism through non-state actors is a matter of deep concern to the entire nation," he said.
He said India believes in peace on the border and is always ready to offer a hand in the hope of friendship.
"But this hand should not be taken for granted," he said.
