With Olympic-standard sports grounds to premium arts education, it provides a level of networking that few schools in Asia can offer.

The prestigious collaborative project was undertaken in association with the President’s Secretariat, Rashtrapati Bhavan, and the National Institute of Design (NID), Ahmedabad.
