The Hindu Education Plus Club (E-Plus club) was launched amid much fanfare at Dr. Lankapalli Bullayya College here on Monday. Over 150 students, apart from the 30 selected members of the club, across various streams like MBA and MCA, faculty members and E-Plus club mentors attended the launch function, which was held at the college campus.

Appreciating the initiative taken by The Hindu Education Plus, the secretary and correspondent of the college G. Madhu Kumar urged the students to make full use of the club activity to better their communication skills.

The Dean of the College K. Satyanarayana laid emphasis of the dedication level of the students and urged them to take up the activity seriously and in continuity.

A success

The E-Plus club activity was first launched by the paper’s Editor-in-Chief N. Ram at S.R.R. Government Degree and PG College in Karimnagar on November 20, 2008. It was initially started to help rural students develop their soft skills, but after its success, it is now being extended to other colleges in the cities and professional institutions.

The Director of Department of Computer Science and Management Studies K.V. S. Patnaik, Principal of the college I. Partha Saradhi, Chief of Bureau of The Hindu B. Prabhakkar Sarma and the publication’s Regional General Manager T.V. Suresh addressed the students. The Assistant Director of Department of Computer Science and Management Studies S.M. Rahaman introduced the gathering and gave a brief of the club activity. The Public Relations Officer of Dr. L. Bullayya College K. Satyanarayana Reddy was also present.
