Ms. Ashima Dhiman, Academic coordinator said, “girls are doing well in sports, education, health sectors and agriculture but the ratio is very less in technical courses due to their less interest, High fee structure. The Scheme will encourage girls to explore their potential in engineering and technology fields with lesser fee structure at Aryans.” 
It is to be mentioned that the each one of us has a collective responsibility towards this end; otherwise we would not only be harming the current generation, but also inviting a “terrible crisis” for the future generations. He appealed that maximum girl should take the benefit of the scheme so that dropout rate among girl students could be lowered.
