Speaker's Quotes
MR. PAUL AIYONG SEONG
Deputy Director of Office of Social Sector, United States Agency for International Development/India, US Embassy "You have the key to government accountability. Development is hard but what is needed is to remember personal stories, what it's about and that way we can remain confident that what you do is making a difference" |
SHRI L.L DOUNGEL (IPS)
Former Director General of Police, Nagaland “If there is one section of the society that feels discriminated, it is not justice. Justice has to do with the human thought. When we are in terms of one’s own need alone, it is not justice. It is important to build a society where there is thought for each other, where the person’s need is met.” |
Ms. LISE GRANDE
