I am Prashant Dixit, a 23-year-old student from R.V. College of arts, Bangalore. As a part of student social survey project, we were planning to visit the historical exhibition in your town. I am writing to you to seek further details on the exhibition.
Though, I understand, this is a historical exhibition, but could you please elucidate on its content, such as, is there any particular period in history that this exhibition focuses on? What is the highlight of the exhibition and how students can benefit from visiting it? Could you also apprise me of the exhibition dates and timings?
