Mangaluru: Manel Srinivas Nayak Institute of Management (MSNIM) observed International Women’s Day on Monday, March 8, 2021, with a special programme dedicated to women.

Hema Malini S., Manager, Emergency Response Coordination, Mangalore SEZ Limited was the Chief Guest on the occasion. The programme was inaugurated by lighting of the lamp by the Chief Guest, the institute Director, and Members of the Women’s Cell. Various competitions such as Poster Making and Cooking without Fire were held, followed by various other activities for the students. The programme was hosted at the MSNIM campus at Bondel, Mangalore.

Addressing the MBA students and faculty members of MSNIM, the Chief Guest Hema Malini said: “Since olden days, the woman was always a homemaker as her emotional quotient was higher, but today she is a breadwinner also. This doesn’t mean men are anything less. Though a lot of progress has happened in recent times, the benefits have not reached everywhere.”

She added that for women, it is not as easy as for a man to take up tasks as she always has the responsibility to look after her house. She spoke of how society looks down upon the girl child and how girls are discouraged from taking up tasks right from education to basic rights. “Today we have progressed much ahead of where a woman is a daughter, wife, single mother, single breadwinner and even looks after her parents,” she said.

Sharing the example of her own life, she said that circumstances made her study MBA after she lost her father at a young age. “My mother had faith in me. She stood by me all the time and always supported and encouraged me in my life journey,” she said.

Institute Director Dr Molly S. Chaudhuri presided over the function and said that women should fight for equal rights as human being. Divya M. Shetty and Ridhvika Shetty were the coordinators of the programme. Shama gave the vote of thanks. Shraddha S. Raiker compered the programme.
