Interacting with the students of the Sitalakshmi Ramaswamy College for Women,he said women were increasingly playing important roles in various spheres.
Adding that to get to the top they only needed self confidence and courage,he pointed out that it was three women scientists who tracked the recently launched Geo Satellite at Hasan near Bangalore and it was also successfully tracked and maneuvered at crucial stages by them.

The teachers should win the respect of the students by their knowledge and brilliance,and be role models to the students,he said.
