HOW "ROSE" ACHIEVED LV IN INDIPEX-2011

I wish this write-up eo be published together in RSN and ITS SN, in view of wider coverage and response from readers. As I feel, printed version has its own importance and e-magazines have a shorter life and hard copies are always studied deeply.                                                     - © Dr. Satyendra Kumar Agrawal
It was on 17th February 2011, when I experienced that moment of extreme joy on hearing that my collection ‘A Rose… ’ was awarded LV. This joy was a twin achievement of receiving 88 points, the highest ever won by any Indian Thematic Exhibit in any “World Exhibition” for the first time and being the only Large Vermeil given in this exhibition to any Indian Thematic exhibit.
