Kochi (Kerala) [India], May 15: In a first for Kerala, the National Indian Students and Alumni Union UK (NISAU UK) and Edroots International, with support from the British Council, jointly hosted a landmark Student-Educator Meet for students aspiring to pursue higher education in the United Kingdom.
