While welcoming the audience and other invited members of PU Alumni Association, the Chairperson of the Department Dr Manish Sharma highlighted the requirement of such poems through which one can express one's feelings and respect to others and nation and how they inspires others.
The participants from various places participated in the competition and most of them opted for the theme on 'COVID-19 Situation" and some also picked up nationalism. The participants were given two minutes time to recite their self-composed poems.
