One of the prominent speakers here was the Director of Disha Consultants Prashant Pol who spoke on the topic ‘Treasure of Indian knowledge’.
Pol, drawing on his knowledge, said that since many people from India migrated to different parts of the world in ancient times, they also carried with them the ethos and culture which is evident even today.
