Prof. Seetha Ram suggested exploring the possibilities of setting up a Tokyo University extension office on BHU campus.
He said that an institution like Banaras Hindu University has enormous potential and opportunities to offer not only to students and academicians but to institutions as well and Tokyo University would be interested to tap this opportunity for the benefit of students and teachers from both sides.
