For the last number of years of my close association, it is undoubtedly that I can vouch for it's highest standards in teaching, research and scholarly imparting of ...

My association with Nalanda runs into several years. Initially as an eager and enthusiastic spectator to most of the seminars and conferences conducted by Dr.KanakRele and team.
