    I have no words to express except my honor to all women, young and old on this day of INTERNATIONAL WOMEN'S DAY. We are proud that on this day all women have got a special place and as you know that AIR INDIA had an all women's crew from Delhi to San Francisco a non stop flight. Also they had some all women crew on their domestic flights. My hats off to Agnesian Alumnae Association for celebrating Women's Day. I would like to congratulate all the honorees.

    Awards and Recognitions are very essential in these days so that the Young Achievers receive their rewards at the right time of their life. In turn, they will turn out to be better leaders of tomorrow and give back to the Community much greater than we anticipate.

    Its a changing Society, and therefore any boost for the young will encourager the younger generation to come forward and try to give their very best to the society they surround.

    We therefore fully encourage these kind of opportunities for the young men and women to shine so that many others will imitate them and make the society ever more prosperous.
