He has extensively studied the impact of private school book corruption and compiled his findings into his latest book,\u00a0<\/span>Private School Book Corruption<\/span><\/i>, which highlights the depth of the issue and provides clear solutions for reform.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

With years of experience in the education sector, Dr. Sahni has been a vocal advocate for fair practices in school book distribution. His contributions have been widely recognized, earning him prestigious honors such as the\u00a0<\/span>Sahitya Ratna Samman, Atal Ratna Samman, Capital Foundation National Award<\/span><\/i>, and\u00a0<\/span>Ruhelkhand Ratna Samman<\/span><\/i>. His extensive research and writings continue to shed light on pressing issues in the education system.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
