00:00When I entered IIT, 1995, there are two departments that girls don't usually prefer,
00:07Mechanical Engineering and Civil Engineering.
00:10In fact, I think in Mechanical there was just one.
00:13So somebody has to initiate it.
00:17You very well know that even in Olympics, women were not allowed till not so long back, right?
00:24So all these doors are now opening.
00:27If you just go back two or five decades, you will be amazed at how many doors were closed then.
00:35In many of these so-called developed countries, women couldn't vote.
00:40But today they can.
00:43And there still are countries where women can't drive.
00:46So fine, all that is history.
00:49Don't be so historically aligned.
00:52Don't say you are carriers of historical traditions because history really carries nothing for you.
01:00The woman must make a fresh start.
