In the serene backdrop of Ayodhya Road, the Birla Open Minds International School recently hosted an
enthralling workshop that took its students on an astronomical adventure. This unique event, designed to
ignite young minds with the wonders of the cosmos, was a blend of education and observation, reaching beyond
