Answer 2

Answer:

The increased participation of girls in the National Children’s Science Congress is heartening, according to Tessy Thomas, scientist and Director General of Aeronautical Systems, Defence Research and Development Organisation (DRDO).

She was speaking to The Hindu on the sidelines of the congress where she interacted with children during a ‘Meet the Scientist’ programme here on Saturday. This year, nearly 60% of the child scientists taking part in the congress are girls.

Scene in Kerala

Ms. Thomas said the percentage of women joining the science stream had increased from some 3% a few decades ago to 15%. This was because of the importance given to science in academic institutions and the science fraternity. Kerala, especially, was supporting innovations in science at the school level, she said. Achievements by women in institutions such as ISRO, DRDO, and CSIR were inspiring girls to take up science. The percentage of women in the DRDO, Ms. Thomas pointed out, too had gone up. The science field, she said, was very challenging and if committed to learning, women could go far. They should persevere, even when required to go the extra mile when faced with something for the first time in the field. One should not let detractors bother them
