Smt. Harsimrat Kaur Badal, Union Minister for Food Processing, congratulated the One Globe Forum 2018 for bringing together international experts and leaders from diverse fields to deliberate on a range of contemporary topics. In her speech, she lauded the Forum for inviting a host of women speakers and delegates, ensuring female participation in a relevant debate. This is especially important in a country where women are suffering from economic and other threats – such as gender and cultural biases. Smt.
