Agartala, 15th May 2026: A two-day mega education fair aimed at guiding students towards quality higher education and career opportunities will begin on Saturday at the Parkline Hotel in Agartala. The event, organized by ‘Edu Hub’ in association with Markline Consultancy, will remain open from 3 PM to 9 PM on both days.
The announcement was made during a press conference held at the Agartala Press Club on Friday. Representatives from several reputed educational institutions attended the briefing, including Rupam Roy, Proprietor of Markline Consultancy; mentor Ranjan Barua; Deepak Singh of Pimpri Chinchwad University; Dr. Ranjit Singh of Desh Bhagat University; Niladri Das, Director of NIELIT Agartala; and Sohli Singh of Marwadi University.

Markline Consultancy has decided to sponsor three students locally as part of the initiative. In a major announcement, Pimpri Chinchwad University will provide 100 per cent tuition fee waivers to 18 meritorious students from the eight North-Eastern states and Jammu & Kashmir. Eligible students can avail the benefit either through a special entrance examination or by securing a CGPA of 8.0 in previous academic examinations.
