They too deserve the affection and care of parents. 500 students, through the medium of their cultural program entitled ‘The Light of Our Life’, expressed that in our society, girls are considered inferior to boys and are killed in womb. Considering them the burden of life,people insist them to get married at an early age and forbid them from education. They are tortured at in- laws house but the scenario is changing fast. Girls are no less than boys. Imagining a world without girl is impossible. The magnificent women of society e.g. Kalpna Chawla, Mother Teresa, Rani Jhansi, Saina Nehwal, Kiran Bedi too are daughters. They have proved that woman is versatile and play many roles at a same time. The Chief Guest Dr. Arvind Ghai was all full of praise for the small wonders of DAV International. He, in his presidential speech, said that male and female are an indispensable part of the society but the irony is that every man dream of beautiful life partner but hesitates to welcome a girl child.
