Bhartiya Sansad founder's view about conference

Executive president, founder, and initiator of Bharatiya Chatra Sansad- Rahul Karad said that the foundation stone was established in 2003 with a thought that an institution should be there which teaches politics to the students. In 2005 the MIT school of government was inaugurated which is India’s first school that teaches politics. He said on the one hand politics was involved after opening that in India where muscle power and money power matters, how can education be considered and how is that so important. On the other hand, many political leaders said that they will contribute by being guest faculty and guiding students which they are doing even now. He emphasized the fact that the institute does not promote any ideology and people from various political parties having different ideologies participate in the discussion. He further said that over five present MLAs have studied from MIT.

Talking about the Indian student parliament he said that it is first of its kind initiative which is by the student and for the student. The education institution believes in the importance of education in politics. The two-year programme organized by the institute dedicates one year to academics and last year is given to students to practice. Rahul further said that each and every legislative should have at least one school similar to MIT. Union Minister Rajnath Sigh has also been invited to the conclave which also marks the 75 years of Independence.
