In the `Bal Goshti’, the participating children opened their hearts and sought to portray their vision for the nation while speaking on the theme `Yadi Main Pradhan Mantri Hota’.
The participating students, many of whom had their first experience to the nuance of Public Service Boarding, were surprised and enthralled at listening to the rare archival speeches of Mahatama Gandhi and Pt Jawahar Lal Nehru. A patriotic group song competition was final presentation of the show. About 70 children participated in Display Your Talent, which was aimed to encourage performance only and not the achievement.
