NIDAS will be conducted on the third Saturday of every month, from 10.30 am to 1 pm. If 3rd Saturday is a holiday, NIDAS will be conducted on the subsequent working day. Total duration of the webinar is 2.30 hours, one hour for presentation/talk followed by an hour of discussion. As of now the program is being conducted in Malayalam.
