1st Residents' Review Course (RRC) :

The RRC ’96 was the first ever all-India residents’ conference to be held. 265 residents from all over the country participated. Over 60% were from outside Mumbai.

The conference lasted for three days. The highlights of the course were the punctuality of the program, the speakers and the film reading sessions. An idea of an all-India residents’ union was mooted.

All residents were repeatedly asked to fill up the feedback forms, which would help us in preparing for future programs.
