The judging panel comprised both teacher and student representatives. The teachers’ panel was chaired by Dr. Velayudhan Nair T and Dr. Sony Mary Varghese, while the student panel included Lekshmi S and Lekshmi H, first-year B.Ed. English optional students.


The primary objective of the event was to identify and develop students’ acting skills, enhance their presence of mind, and strengthen their ability to face challenges with confidence.
