Campuses to be gained - NDU & JNU

Ok, back to churching trip. Visited 2 most famous and prestigious universities in India, namely the New Delhi University (NDU) and Jawarhalal Nehru University (JNU). The students there are the vessels to be gained by the Lord.

NDU
On the 3rd day in New Delhi, we were brought to visit the colleges of NDU. Their uni administration system is very different from ours. Every college has their own administrative bodies and you may find one same course in a few colleges but with different standard of requirements. This means that u have to file your application not only to the university but also to the colleges to which u're interested in and of course only if u meet the requirement, eg. got 98% (faint!) in a government exam for the application of commerce studies in St. Stephen's College.

One of the top colleges - Hindu college

The buildings and even the campus atmosphere are very much British-influenced

Lecture hall? Reminds me of primary school classroom.
Selling books under tree....


They just like to lie on the garden....I wonder why....
Rays of sunlight - nice?
Actually......air pollution... ==
Breathtaking garden
The beautiful garden where we preached the gospel for the 1st time in India.

One more.

JNU
The university where the leaders of political parties and successful politicians are produced. Also a huge and beautiful university. But the difference is that the courses offered are mostly for postgraduates, hardly any undergraduate courses. So the students there are insanely brainy people and they are not as open as those in NDU to the gospel. There's a living seed, a sister who had undergone FTTND pursuing master study in JNU.

Cel and I. Background building is the library of JNU.
As we're taking a stroll in the uni, we gave out gospel tracks and preached 1 min gospel.

Then we took a bus ride to the saint's house.
We had prayer meeting at night in the saint's house, as written in the previous post.
