SAMBA, SEPTEMBER 25: In continuation to the series of activities under India’s Presidency in G20 and Azadi Ka Amrit Mahotsav, Government Degree College Ramgarh on Monday organized a Group Discussion on ‘Gandhi ji’s Contribution to Indian Education’ to commemorate Gandhi Jayanti.

 The event was organized under the guidance and coordination of Prof. (Dr.) Geetanjali Andotra, Principal of the College.

A total of 20 students actively participated in the discussion and put forth their thoughts.
