BHEL Explores Research Collaboration with JNTUH
A group from BHEL, a big Indian company, visited a university in Hyderabad called JNTUH.
They wanted to find ways to work together on research projects.
The university showed them what they do best, and BHEL said they spend a lot of money on research.

This is to help students and teachers work on real-world problems.
