Govind ji, Pradarshini is the word for "Exhibition".
You could be right Deepak. But my knowledge with Marathi, which is same in grammer as Hindi, (even though I am not an expert in languages) says that pradarshini should also be same as pradharshit. Pradarshan as we use in Hyderabad, is an event. Pradashini may be the correct word used in Hindi belt. I think all these words come from a Sanskrit word Darshan which means an apprearance. Darshit is an object. I really do not know the meaning of "Pra". It probably came from other words and could mean magnanimous (huge). Like Pra-laya, Pra-kruti, pra-sthan or pra-stut.
