“I must point out here that none of our developmental goals has any

meaning without gender parity – and without equal opportunities for our

daughters and girl-children…

…We have to take accelerated steps to promote the participation of girl students and of women in science and technology. If this disparity is

not addressed, our scientific achievements will always be less

than perfect and less than desirable.”

Hon’ble President
