It aims to provide an opportunity for people from all walks of life, including scholars, traders and artisans, from the two ancient seats of learning to share their knowledge, culture and best practices, and learn from each others’ experience. A month-long exhibition of handlooms, handicrafts, books, documentaries, cuisine, art forms, history and tourist places of the two regions will also be put up in Varanasi. The endeavour is in sync with National Education Policy’s emphasis on integrating the wealth of Indian knowledge systems with modern systems of knowledge.
