Director Higher Education Raji Srivastava and SSP (Operations) Dinesh Bhatt were the main resource persons in the workshop. Principal of the college, Promila Kaushal, while welcoming the resource persons and participants, said time had come when everyone needed to come together in arriving at meaningful solutions against the menace of female foeticide.

Dinesh Bhatt felt that if there was any inaction on the part of society or police, then all were to be equally blamed for it. He also emphasised on the role and importance of the girl child.

Raji Srivastava said that to fight female foeticide, cooperation, dynamism and a drive was needed in which the entire society must participate. She said the workshop would go a long way in awakening and mobilising the society.

The participants in the workshop pledged to fight against the evil of female foeticide and assured their role as agents of social change.

Many teachers from local colleges deliberated upon the different dimensions, causes and effects of female foeticide and joined the priests in arriving at concrete measures that can be initiated at the community level.
