Woman power

Piramal Healthcare director Swati Piramal has made history by becoming the first woman chief of a national chamber of commerce. As the newly-elected president of Assocham, she’s doing her bit for woman-power. All chairpersons of around 100 working groups in Assocham are now women, and the co-chairs are all men.

At the dinner to bid farewell to Sajjan Jindal, Piramal ensured he was up there on the stage singing along with Bollywood singer Parthiv Gohil (famous for his songs in Saawariya). The rest of the audience, too, was singing to Piramal’s tune.
