Do you love to travel? Of course, you do! We’d give away anything just to hit the road. Did you know that around the world, road networks transport 50% of all goods and 70% of total passenger traffic in most countries?
Well, India happens to pride herself for having the second largest road network in the world - almost 5.5 million kilometers of paths.
We’ve got some fabulous scenic routes all over the country and the geographical palette just adds to the beauty. Steady development on our road networks has perked the average urban wanderers into frequenting longer, lovelier routes.
And thus, we need our old reliable watering holes all the more: the stopovers, the eateries, the filling stations to rest, feed, refresh and refuel. Each becoming a vital part of highway infrastructure.

The oriental establishments of the Middle-East, Northern Africa and some parts of Europe all mention the bustling marketplaces in their popular culture. They weren’t just the main centers of trade and business, but were multifunctional entities that contributed to the social and cultural exchange between people and civilizations. These marketplaces were called by different names in different regions and languages; Bazaar in Persian, Souk in Arabic etc. Today, bazaars tend to be found in a city's medina (old quarter) and are often important tourist attractions.

The world is growing at a break-neck speed today and with rapid urbanization, information and technology, it is demanding a constantly changing human intellect. To face these transformations, the upcoming generations need to be moulded in a way that they can cope efficiently with the variations.

Over the last decades, education has evolved into a vital necessity for people belonging to all facets of the ever-changing world. An important agent of social change, education not only helps in molding young minds with values but also guides their intellectual development and boosts the society’s potential for its own progressive transformation. Education can help in the eradication of many social evils such as poverty, poor health, scarcity of food and water, pollution and other stigmas.
