Since its inception, the University of Mysore has given priority to girls’ education. Even now the number of girls is more than boys in this university. Thus, even the parents are giving priority to the education of girls. SPARSH Committee helps the women and girl students who are in problem. The committee conducts an inquiry and helps the women to get justice. I wish all the awareness programs that SPARSH conducts will reach all the staff members of the University,” he said.
