The Arunachal Pradesh native emphasised how educated women become transformative leaders, driving economic advancement and reshaping societal norms. “Education empowers girls to claim their rights, pursue their dreams, and build a world where gender equality is not just an aspiration but a tangible reality,” she stated confidently.
Ete’s response resonated with the judges and audience alike, showcasing her intellect and passion for social progress.
“I stand here as a testament to the resilience and determination that education instils, and I firmly believe in our power to forge our own paths to success,” she concluded.
