The 4-6-year-old kids appeared on the stage dressed in the costume of Indian freedom fighters, in the ‘Yeh Desh Hai Veer Jawanon Ka’ competition, and delivered popular punchlines made by the freedom fighters, which brought goosebump-worthy moments to the audience. The same age group of children participated in the competition to color a line drawing provided by Tulu Koota. The picture provided had the theme of the 75 years of Independence. The ‘Show n tell’ competition was for the age group 6-9 years with the theme of National Symbols of India, where kids came as national symbols – Peacock, Tiger, Banyan tree, River Ganga, Lotus flower which was a feast for the eyes.

Kids aged from 9-12 participated energetically in the solo dance and quiz competition. In the solo dance, kids showed an enthralling performance, depicting patriotism. The quiz consisted of questions signifying ‘My India’ related to Indian monuments, great personalities, freedom fighters, etc, which was arduous for the young genius minds.  

The teenagers from 12-15 years had very innovative ideas for their tri-color kite-making competition. The tri-colored kites made by the children flew brightly in the sky. They also had ‘Desh Bhakti Geeth’ performed by many youngsters who sang various patriotic songs beautifully.
