The programme was interesting and engaging enabling students to converse upon wide ranging topics, including the political structure of each nations. The student of MAIS also guided them in understanding more about India, while the students from Netherlands were amazed by the amount of diversity especially within the CHRIST (Deemed To Be University) campus, and appreciated India for being such a welcoming nation.
