Painters, sculptors, printmakers, teachers, they have made a name for themselves, but in the absence of their work being shown nationally—rather than regionally, as has been the norm—many have remained outside mainstream discourse. At DAG, it has been our effort to ensure their rediscovery and recognition, something we continue to do with our Silver Series, fixed-price online sales. The outstanding success of the first two editions is an indicator that art-lovers also have an appreciation for lesser-known names, as well as those whose works do not appear frequently in the market. Our endeavour with every edition will be to continue to surprise you with the mix of artists and the quality of their work. I hope the additions in this edition will bring you joy. If you miss any favourites, I assure you that you will find them in subsequent editions.

My sincere thanks and gratitude to all those who assisted me in conceptualizing, writing and finally completing this dissertation. I am deeply indebted to my guide and mentor, Dr Kusum Lata, who was helpful at each stage of this Herculean task by supporting me and giving me ideas and constantly guided me. It was indeed a great experience working on this subject as it provided me immense satisfaction. 2. I wish to place on record my sincere thanks to all those colleagues, women officers who gave me an insight into the issues being faced by the women officers and also the organization constraints, which helped me understand both the perspectives. Aspirations are there with every individual but they have to be met by keeping the organization constraints in mind, the efforts to meet the aspirations have to be sincere and genuine for overall good of the organization. 3. The interactions with various stake holders, the male officers and the women officers helped me understand the subject better. These interactions gave me first- hand information about their views, problems, sate of morale and their aspirations. The Honorable Supreme Court’s judgment dated 17 Feb 2020 has met most of the aspirations of the women officers but I have tried to highlight certain issues which, if addressed, can lead to better working environment and increase the effectiveness of the organization.
