''We expect about 9,000 to 10,000 on the spot job offers to students from this fest,'' he said adding that they had already placed 1200 students over the last six months in 12 separate placements and pool interview drives so far.
While sharing the vision and expansion plans of the Group, which was started with the meagre strength of 180 students in 2001 and which has now increased to 10,000 students, Mr Bahra informed that setting up of an Education City in Hoshiarpur was on the cards, which would be having nearly 26 institutes and colleges at one place from nursery onwards and also nearly 100 plus two schools would also be set up in the region.
