Hiraeth is an effort to connect Bitsian alumni & Current students through the medium of Podcast where both sides of the table get to experience the campus through audio.

This pandemic was something none of us could have seen coming and were greatly affected by the same. But even in these tough times, people found their way to give back to society. We gladly bring to you "Abhishek Gorle" in another installment of the spotlight series.
