I made it a point to join sree siddaganga college for arts, science and commerce, Tumkur for M.com because the institution is very much known for imparting uality education in the whole district. I found many new friends who are uite friendly and supportive, we were asked to introduce ourselves which indeed helped us to know each other better, I am very fortunate to have dedicated team of education professionals and staff who are always keen on preparing the next generation for the challenges of a brilliant future. !n the first day itself i felt that I had taken the right decision by joining this institution.
