Watsa was aware of the lack of sex education in India and in 1974, he worked as a consultant for the Family Planning Association of India (FPAI) where he proposed a sexual education programme for the country. The FPAI hence started India’s first sex education, counselling and therapy centre despite oppositions.
Watsa left his gynaecology practice in early 1980s and worked full-time in counselling and education.
