 IT Tourism |
Besides learning English and IT, Softbridge assists trainees in arranging various tours to interesting places in India.
These tours are during weekends.
About India:
Till recently India evoked an image of a mysterious land of elephants, snake-charmer and Maharajas.
This misconception seems to be giving way to another one whereby all Indians are being perceived to be
involved with computers and information technology. However, the reality is that India is a bit of everything; India is a culturally diverse and colourful country. With a rich heritage and culture India offers exciting tourism, Indians are extremely receptive to tourists visiting India !
India is as large as Europe ! population over one billion people, majority of whom practice Hinduism though the country is home to almost all major religions of the world. New Delhi is the capital city of India, other big cities are Mumbai, Chennai, Calcutta, Bangalore, Hyderabad and Pune. The national language of India is Hindi. However, there are more than a dozen official languages spoken in the country.
English is quite widely spoken in India.
