Thank you for your invitation for being a mentor at the SDPS International Girls' School. I will do what I can in my humble capacity.

The development of the girl child should be a crusade which all right thinking Indians must be involved in. Our country's democratic development would be incomplete and dwarfed if women do not have a major role to play. It should be the endeavor of your school and all those associated with it to ensure that the girl child develops and flowers into such a strong personality that she can confidently hold her own in any forum or assignment, nationally or internationally.

With my Best Wishes
General Randhir Singh
