Prof( Dr) Rabindra Nath Ojha remained attached to his village until his last breath. He established the tradition of organizing discussion/sangoshthi whenever he visited the village with the objective that villagers could get a free platform to air their views/opinion and interact among themselves. As a visionary he cherished to see his village and villagers grow/prosper on all fronts.The lecture series in his name is continuation of this tradition.
