‘Communication skill vital to excel in any profession’

TIRUPUR: Communication skill is vital for any professional to succeed in his/her career, Subas Pani, Secretary, Union Rural Development Ministry, has said.

Speaking at the 10th graduation day of NIFT-TEA Knitwear Fashion Institute after presenting certificates to students on Monday, Dr. Pani said better communication skill was crucial for client interaction, explaining the designs and coordinating with various players in the trade.
