Regarding her visit, Gugni shares and we quote,
"I have always believed that irrespective of gender and preferences, everyone should have equal rights towards education and making their lives better. We don't really have control regarding how and where we are born but we are certainly in control of what we do with our lives after that. The great Nelson Mandela says that 'Education is the most powerful weapon which you can use to change the world' and I totally agree with it. As an empowered woman, I feel it is my responsibility to use my position of power in order to empower other women and make our world a better place. That is my way of giving it back to society and the universe. I am extremely happy with my visit here and I really hope the sanctity of the cause remains always. I will always keep doing my bit. I hope others are doing their humble bit too."
