Noida: The power of a photograph to encapsulate a moment, emotion, or story is unparalleled. Capturing the essence of this sentiment, the 12th Global Festival of Journalism commenced with the inauguration of a captivating photography exhibition by the students of AAFT School of Still Photography. The event was graced by esteemed dignitaries and renowned media personalities, marking a significant celebration of the International Day of Journalism.
