On Chandrayaan-3

On G20
“India has ensured a leading role for itself on various global platforms and has taken over the G20 presidency. Since G20 represents two-thirds of the world's population, this (the presidency) is a unique opportunity for us to help shape global discourse in the right direction.”
On women freedom fighters

On women empowerment
“Today our women have made their special place in many such fields in which their participation was unimaginable a few decades ago.
