Ujjwal – Okhla – 2016

President A P J Abdul Kalam, while delivering the inaugural address at the 23rd India20161022_154419 International Trade Fair in New Delhi in November 2003 said, ‘The driving force for economic development in rural areas is providing urban amenities in rural areas and it’s the treasury of nation development’ and we at Helping Brainz thought of starting with ‘child education’.
