    "content": "I remember one of the first trips I made out of the country was to the United States of America. All I was required to do was to write a paper and then I got everything funded. I did not need to know anyone. All I needed was to write a paper on the issue of mainstreaming human rights and women, which I already knew. I got an air ticket, accommodation in a five star hotel in the US, all my meals were paid and I paid per diem. All this is in the internet but because we are not providing that linkage--- Even yesterday, I saw the same organisation providing the same opportunities for young people, women and people with disabilities next year in Brazil. However, because we do not get that next chance it becomes difficult. That is why for me this is very exciting. I got numerous opportunities by the time I was coming to this Parliament. I think I had travelled to more than 50 countries courtesy of opportunities like this. That is why the issue of internship, incubation and all that in this Bill are very important. I have seen and nurtured very many young people who have gone ahead and got jobs in other areas because we were able to give them opportunities. I am happy that this Bill is providing a platform for young people like these."
