More than 1,200 students and parents took part on the first day of Open Day organised by the Delhi University to clear doubts on courses, colleges and admission process. After a presentation by officials, the participants were allowed to ask questions related to the various courses offered by the university.
"The crowd was expected and there were over 1,200 parents and students," deputy dean of students' welfare Gurpreet Singh Tuteja told PTI.
