“I saw students comparing the facilities of their school with other schools after having one-to-one discussions at various educational institutions stalls at the Fair. A sixth class student named Aditya told me that he has been collecting information regarding the type of education he could get in other schools when I asked this student about the Fair”, he said.

Ramdas said that a CFTRI School student told him that his school was the best with all facilities and added that the student told him that he would inform his school heads to bring in some changes.

The MLA further said that a student of Rotary School told him that he came to know about multiple options for studies after visiting the fair and  added that the Education Fair was a grand success.
