After the 4th period two students decided that they wanted to have lunch with S.Karanveer Singh. Both students asked many interesting questions and held a discussion with him about his work.
Everyone really appreciated the engaging style with which S.Karanveer Singh was able to hold the attention of the mostly 10-12 year old school children. They also were moved by his interactive presentation on bullying prevention.
S.Karanveer Singh has held well over 40 events on these topics, in schools, colleges and conferences across the nation in the last three years.
