I am also went for organising the event for one day. And also i shared bit on android.

Thanks for the event organisers Shanu, Welkin, Praveen, Basker, RaviJaya

No thanks to SSN, becazi heard that they asked money for all the resource used during the training. FSFTN is a non-profit org, how they will pay??

Any way SSN helped with gaining money to spread FOSS to 270 students.
