They have the power to make hell into heaven. “Many types of libraries are available in almost all the small and big cities of the country.In some cities and rural areas, there is also a provision of a mobile library on the go, so that people can avail the said facility in weekly order. The World Class Library has been constructed in the state of Chhattisgarh by the District Kerala Trust, Environmental Protection Division and Raipur Smart City Limited, the general library consists only of books but this library has all the facilities in the world. This library is named Nalanda Campus.
