Annual Academic Meet: Shri Shanti Narayan Mathematics Conclave

Shri Shanti Narayan Conclave is the Annual Academic fest of the Department named after Shri Shanti Narayan, an exceptionally well-known educationist who went on to become the second principal of Hansraj College. The conclave spans over 2 days which includes various academically rich events like Speaker Sessions, Paper Presentation Competition, and even a Mathematical quiz. The event attracts intelligent minds from across colleges including students and academicians.
