session on "Women and Gender related issues in Indian astronomy" was again proposed as part of the 2015 annual meeting of the Astronomical Society of India, held at NCRA-TIFR, Pune. The session was approved by the scientific organising committee of ASI-2015 and took place on 19th February. The main focus of this year's session was a panel discussion on improving the workplace for gender equity. Major work towards forming the gender equity working group under ASI also started from this session.</p> <p><strong>Panel Discussion : Improving the workplace for gender equity</strong></p> <ol><li>Nissim Kanekar, NCRA-TIFR, Pune</li> <li>Dibyendu Nandi, IISER, Kolkata</li> <li>Prajval Shastri, IIAp, Bangalore</li> <li>Prasad Subramaniam, IISER, Pune</li> <li>Firoza K.
