Governor Prof Ganeshi Lal on Sunday inaugurated the “Singhi Library and Museum” founded by the Singhi Charitable Trust for educational development of school and college students, especially for those who are interested in higher education and research.
Assuring that the air-conditioned library would provide huge collection of books on different streams of the entire world and necessary books free of cost to students, trust chairman Pratap Singh Singhi said that at present there are more than 30,000 precious books and the number is likely to increase up to one lakh books in future. In the museum, there are huge collections of coins, matchbox design covers of almost all countries of the world along with antiques, rare photographs, portraits and medals of different periods which are quite educative and informative for all ages.
Singhi requested students, parents, teachers and general public of the capital city to make best use of the educational resources made available for their benefit and requested the Governor to provide a suitable land or a roadside Government quarter to develop the library-cum-museum at its own cost.
