Controvert

By

The College’s collective Vox Populi organised a debate session for the newbies! The students were given the topic “I was born intelligent, education made me a fool.” The present system of education somehow hinders students to think beyond the facts. 

The debate commenced at 11 am with a motivating speech by Prof. Dilip Shah. He talked about the witty conversation between Gandhi and Churchill. Each speaker was given a minute to speak for or against the motion. The audience also participated interactively and some of them asked the participants some intriguing questions. The event ended around 12:30 pm with the announcement of the winners and prize distribution ceremony. The top three speakers of the debate were Sofia Parveen, Sumaiya Hassan and Anubhav Sarkar.

The event was definitely a success, and the students look forward to more such sessions in the future.
