Students from Sikkim meet CM Dikshit

Dikshit said,“I am sure these students will gain valuable experience by seeing the city’s historical monuments,discovering the values of unity in diversity and communal harmony.”

She appreciated the steps taken by the ITPBF and expressed hope that such tours will be conducted in the future. She further said to the students: “Delhi is yours. I will host you whenever you come.”
