Dr Pheroza Godrej was our Chief Guest for the occasion and spoke of the important role a woman had in her family and cited the quote “the hand that rocks the cradle rules the world”.

For the cookery contest this year we had over fifty entries. Chef Philip Kurian from the Taj Lands End, chef Tanya Singh from ITC and chef Abhijit Jadhav from Sun n Sand had a tough time selecting the winners.

An lively afternoon of games, dance performances and a regional dress cum personality contest was followed by a special lunch that was greatly enjoyed.

What was really heartening was to learn of individual experiences of women who spoke about how their lives had been transformed with the support and help from NSCC-I.
