The Digital Studio, housed in the Mini Secretariat in Baramulla, is a significant step towards bridging the gap between students in far-flung areas and quality education. With the scarcity of faculty in remote regions, the center’s recorded lectures by renowned and motivational faculties promise to offer valuable academic support to thousands of students.
