Gandhinagar : NFSU honors the services of eminent women scientists of the country. A special program was organized today by the National Forensic Science University to honor the services of 11 eminent women scientists of the country for their outstanding contribution. The Speaker of the Legislative Assembly, Dr. Nimaben Acharya, congratulated founder vice chancellor Dr. J.M.Vyas for being nominated for the Padmashri Award in the year 2022 and gave him full credit for the fact that National Forensic Sciences University is making strides not only in the country but also in the international arena. The speaker said that the main objective of setting up Gujarat Forensic Sciences University is to decrease the shortage of scientific and technical experts for solving the crime field. The establishment of the University of Forensic Sciences will address the current shortage of highly qualified technical experts in the field of criminal investigation at the national as well as international level and for the establishment of an internal security system. He added that in October 2020, the Central Government under the leadership of Prime Minister Narendra Modi gave Gujarat Forensic Sciences University the status of National Level and Institution of National Importance, making the University function as a National Forensic Sciences University. NFSU has made great strides and has gained a lot of name in the country and around the world. She said that forensic technology is very useful for solving treacherous activities as well as complex crimes at a time when the number of serious and complex crimes is increasing day by day at national and international level. There is an urgent need to produce high level forensic and psychological experts for maintaining law and order as well as maintaining the internal security of the country. In the future, these experts will be able to face such challenges competently. It is an auspicious intention to prepare forensic experts and use their technological knowledge to maintain peace and prosperity in the country and around the world.
The speaker said that Rajmata Meenal Devi ruled over Gujarat, centuries ago. While our Chief Minister was a woman, Lok Sabha Speaker Sumitra Mahajanji was also running Parliament as a woman. At a time when our President Pratibha Patil was also running the administration of the entire country as a woman, we also need to come forward organized and strong. The Gujarat Government has taken several steps towards women empowerment. I am successfully fulfilling the responsibility entrusted to me as the first woman Speaker of the Gujarat Legislative Assembly. Woman is a social force. Today, as we strive for women’s empowerment and social equality and empowerment, it is imperative that women remain integral with men in the mainstream of society. NFSU honors senior forensic women scientists and strengthens the Prime Minister’s advocacy for women’s empowerment. The country has improved a lot in the direction of women empowerment. Yet much remains to be done. The aim is to create an environment in which women at the end of the country can be brought to a respectable position economically, socially and politically by providing awareness by educating them. Women need to be empowered by creating opportunities for them to reach space from the threshold of the home and for that women also need to be aware and work hard to empower themselves.
