of having food? Visit Regional Science Centre at Khanapara,
which is opening a gallery to answer all your queries. Chief

square feet area at an estimated expenditure of Rs 45 lakh,
keeping in view the importance of chemistry in the day-to-day

that people consume by way of having food and how these
chemicals are digested to provide energy. T
