日本インド学生会議
Japan India Student Conference

Do you know Shanti Niketone, another city in Kolkata and Delhi that the 22nd members visited in the summer of 2018? Shanti Niketan is actually one of the cities that the oriental art historian Okakura Tenshin has visited, but it is also one of the places that played an important role in the history of Japan-India relations. The reason is that Rabindranath Tagore (born May 7, 1861) , the founder of Tagore International University, which Shanti Niketan is proud of, lived in the city.
