The Sixth Pragyan

// March 1st, 2010 // 1 Comment » // Pragyan

Ever since the first edition of Pragyan, it has been growing in stature and has joined the pantheon of top notch technical conventions in India. It has become a congregation of the brightest minds and a melting pot of revolutionary ideas. The sixth edition too lived up to its reputation. It was celebrated from the 25th of Feb to the 28th of Feb at the NITT campus.

The Pragyan team would like to like everyone involved with Pragyan 2010 either directly or indirectly. We thank all our corporate partners and all the enthusiastic participants. A special thanks to all members of the Organizing Team for putting in your best efforts without which an event of such magnitude wouldn’t have been possible.

Code your way through the shell, find one minute solutions to everyday computer problems and claim your title.
