Vice-Chancellor Lalji Singh at the Banaras Hindu Universitys cyber library
A varsity academic career, for many, exemplifies the closure of teenage angst, a bittersweet farewell to carefree days and the heralding of an intellectual blossoming tempered only by the limitations of one's enthusiasm. Bearing a testimony to the remarkable vision of Pandit Madan Mohan Malaviya, the Banaras Hindu University (BHU) offers this and much more to its students even today. Deep in the heart of Varanasi lies a 1,360-acre campus, a veritable island of learning that nurtures a generation of nation-builders year after year.
