Message of the President of India on the eve of the New Year

On the eve of the New Year 2013, in a message, the President of India, Shri Pranab Mukherjee has said “We mark the advent of the New Year under a pall of gloom, as the nation mourns the tragic loss of a brave young girl, who became the victim of a heinous crime.

Let us dedicate 2013 to improving the security and welfare of women in our country. Let us use this moment to introspect and earnestly seek ways in which we can address the mindset which lies at the root of such incidents in order that we may achieve dignity and equality for women in our country.

I extend my greetings and best wishes to all my fellow citizens for a purposeful and productive New Year which takes our nation forward to a better future. Let us strive hard to fulfill our unrealized dreams with vigour and determination”.
