In today's meeting, it has been approved to continue the relevant subject as per the previous subject plan."

Under this subject, students will be taught history, geography, general ability of defense and other insightful topics. This will help increase knowledge of students along with that it will be fruitful in future competitive exams and recruitment processes.
