They have no other study circle anywhere else in the country besides the above. It has been brought to our attention that some coaching centres, especially a few located at Hyderabad and Allahabad have been blatantly misrepresenting themselves as Rau’s by unlawfully using their name. While a strict legal action will be taken against such fake coaching centres, students be aware of falling into trap of such fraudulent people and places.
