        Guru Ghasidas University (Prajna Mandapam) in Bilaspur is very easy to find. The exam center is located inside the Prajna Mandapam building on the main campus of Guru Ghasidas Vishwavidyalaya (GGV) in Koni, Bilaspur.  The venue sits inside a massive and highly recognized Central University campus, offering a quiet, secure, and structured testing environment. Because it is the most prominent educational landmark in the Koni region, all local transport operators, bus drivers, and auto-rickshaws know the university grounds perfectly. It is well-linked to primary regional travel routes via the Ratanpur highway corridor, allowing you to reach your hall comfortably as long as you plan ahead for standard student and commuter traffic near the campus gates.    </div>

The nearest major international gateway is Swami Vivekananda Airport (RPR) in Raipur, situated roughly 140 to 145 km away.</li><li><strong>How to reach: </strong>If arriving at Raipur Airport, the most practical route is to take a direct taxi or catch a train from Raipur Junction to Bilaspur Junction. From Bilaspur Airport, you can hire a private taxi or auto-rickshaw directly to the Koni campus via the main city bypass roads.</li></ul></p>
