The plus and minus points of the various options were
analysed and discussed in detail.
Mr. Priya Ranjan Vaid and Ms Ritu Nag then explained the
various criteria and focus areas a corporate looks at when hiring a PR Agency.

and skills of the PR fraternity. It would help the PR industry to grow and
