STATEHOUSE (March 16, 2022) – State Sen. Eric Koch (R-Bedford) welcomed Aniket Singh, from Columbus to the Statehouse who served as a Senate page in February.
Singh is a student at Southside Elementary School.
Pages spend a day at the Statehouse touring the historic building, observing debates from the Senate floor and interacting with their state senator.
"There is no better way to learn how bills are passed than witnessing the legislative process in person," Koch said. "The Senate Page Program puts students right where the action is, and I'm glad Aniket was able to have this opportunity."
Students in grades six through 12 participate in the page program on Mondays, Tuesdays and Thursdays during the legislative session. Groups serve on Wednesdays.

Sen. Koch, chairman of the Senate Committee on Utilities, serves Senate District 44, which includes all or parts of Bartholomew, Brown, Jackson, Lawrence and Monroe counties. He also serves on the Senate Committees on Commerce and Technology, Judiciary, Corrections and Criminal Law, Elections, and Family and Children Services.
