Inaugurating the new campus of Akshar Arbol International School (AAIS)<\/strong> at Injambakkam, Thiru Banwarilal Purohit,<\/strong> Honourable Governor of Tamil Nadu inspired the audience to a recognition of the significance of the opening of a forward-thinking school focused on learning, by quoting from Swami Vivekananda \u201cEducate our people so that they may be able to solve their own problems.
