In comparison to last year's 19,000, this year nearly 21,000 Indian students have gone to Britain to pursue their higher studies. And in order to push this number even higher, this fair is travelling to seven cities across the country, luring students to opt for Britain as their education destination.

Amit Chaturvedi, head of Education UK in north India, said that the fair, which is held annually, is presently in Mumbai and is next going to Kolkata. After that it will come to the British Council in the capital.

"The fair is a good opportunity for students to interact with the authorities of various universities and discuss the course structures in which they are interested.
