The Department of Home Science had been introduced in this college today. I had inaugurated the Laboratory thereof. I had also reviewed its staff and the curriculum. The women of Bharat were naturally endowed with the art of home making and its welfare. In the present age this is given a big name like Home Science. This Home Science is immensely useful in bringing up children and in the aspect of serving other members of the family. This involves sharpening of tastes and skills. Woman has been extolled as Goddess of the house in our and . She is considered as a leader in the path of righteousness; and as a trusted companion to her husband. She has been respected as a bright light in the house. These embodiments of motherhood have been responsible in the task of bringing up children in an atmosphere of truth, companionship, brotherhood, consideration, non-violence, and love. But unfortunately the modern woman is attracted towards western culture and is developing crazy ideas in emulating their way of living. With the result she is ever immersed in dissatisfaction and mental agony. She is leaving the task of children’s care to the maid servants. She is unable to manage her own house. She has no enthusiasm in spreading the fragrance of good practices that are conducive to prosperity.
