    Ms. Ratnakanthi Shetty & Ms. Premalatha Shetty were pioneers in women education and women empowerment and Sri Devi Institute is the right institute to bring forth women issues and eradicate problems of women in Society. I wish the seminar a grand success. Its not only good news to women, I encourage women to attend in large numbers and benefit from this seminar.
