The Ambassador of South Korea, Mr Lee Joon Gyu today said that under the dynamic leadership of Haryana Chief Minister, Mr Bhupinder Singh Hooda Korea’s partnership with Haryana has made great strides.
The South Korean Ambassador was speaking at the function organized to release the book ‘Affinities India & Korea: Past & Present’ at Haryana Bhawan in New Delhi today. The book was jointly released by South Korean Ambassador and Haryana Chief Minister, Mr Bhupinder Singh Hooda. The book is brought out by Bhagat Phool Singh Mahila Vishwavidyalaya, Khanpur Kalan and edited by its Vice-Chancellor, Dr (Mrs) Pankaj Mittal. The Ambassador of Poland, Mr Piotr Kłodkowski was also present on the occasion.
Mr Lee Joon Gyu commended the efforts of the University for organizing the International Korea-India Relations Conference and bringing out this book, which contains the scholarly papers presented at the Conference. The book, he said captures almost all aspects of Korea-India relationship. This will help the readers to understand the dynamically evolving relations between the two countries.
Speaking on the occasion, Mr Hooda said that the State Government is committed to woman empowerment and a number of steps have been taken in this regards. Education of women is at the top most initiatives of the State Government.
He said that the education of girls started at Khanpur Gurukul with just three girls and BPS Mahila Vishwavidyalaya was established in August, 2006. This was like a dream come true to see the young daughters getting holistic and job oriented education at the University, which has come to be known as one of the best universities for women’s education in the country. Its unique social initiatives like Centre for Society University Interface and Research (CSUIR), Centre for Indic-Asian Studies (CIAS) and the recently held Women Youth Parliament are really commendable.
Mr Hooda congratulated the Vice-Chancellor of the University, Dr (Mrs) Pankaj Mittal for conceptualizing the International Conference on India Korea relations in July, 2012 and bringing out this important book based on the deliberations of that Conference. The Vishwavidyalaya is also collaborating with foreign universities. The presence of Ambassadors of South Korea and Poland in this function speaks volumes about the global reach of the University. He said that I have been told that interns from America have also started coming to the University for training. He commended the efforts of the Vice-Chancellor for bringing the University to this level and hoped that the book will be helpful in furthering the relations between India and South Korea, which are already having strong bilateral relations.
The Ambassador of Poland, Mr Piotr Kłodkowski said that India had been in a position to give message to the world and India’s ideas have potential to show path to the world. Our two countries are cooperating in a number of areas, he said.
Dr (Mrs) Pankaj Mittal thanked the Chief Minister, Mr Hooda for releasing the book. He had also inaugurated the International conference on India Korea Relations in July, 2012, which has culminated in this book, Mrs Mittal said. Mr Hooda gives great importance to the women’s education and this University owes its existence and progress to the support of Chief Minister, Mr Hooda. She also thanked the Ambassadors of South Korea and Poland for being present at the function of the release of this book. She also expressed thanks to Dr Kim Do Young and Mr Kim Pyoung for their presence and for extending cooperation to the university in connection with teaching of Korean language and academic exchanges. Dr Mittal thanked Prof. Kapil Kapoor, the visiting Prof. from JNU and the Director of Indic-Asian Studies Centre, for providing necessary guidance to the Centre. She expressed hope that the book will be of immense value to both the countries for understanding each other and initiating policy dialogues and also to researchers.
Prof. Kapil Kapoor said that this book is the first product of the Indic-Asian Studies Centre of the BPS Mahila Vishwavidyalaya. Very soon two more books will also be brought out. India’s intellectual relations with Asia and East Europe have been strong in the past and there is need to rediscover and reconnect with Asia, he said. This is the inspiration behind the establishment of this Centre.
Prof. Asha Kadyan, Registrar of BPS Mahila Vishwavidyalaya thanked the Chief Minister and the Ambassadors of South Korea and Poland and other dignitaries for gracing the occasion.
