Seven school students injured
Seven school students were injured when a school bus collided with a truck at JK Nagar Ropeways under Andal police station area here today.
Callido Learning, an organisation dedicated to helping students bridge the gap between academics and the real world, announced today that it has partnered with IIT Roorkee’s E-Summit to launch an entrepreneurship competition for school students.
Earlier this year, Callido Learning carried out a survey asking Indian teens what they want to learn. The survey found that 85% of teenagers are interested in entrepreneurship. This competition is a way of furthering the interest that students have in entrepreneurship, by giving them training and exposure to some of the best minds of the startup ecosystem.
