The most interesting one "Politicians should be made to work for free" saw heated arguments from both the teams. After the completion of each topic there was a question round, wherein one could clarify their doubts.

There was immense participation not only from the students but also the judges who played their part by sharing their valuable thoughts. Slides on economic growth and agricultural development were shown which depicted statistical figures.

The research was carefully meted out to ensure that the data was accurate and crisp. The topic, India should be divided showed the current situation in Vidarbha and Telangna. In addition reasons were given as to why these areas were not able to prosper.

The topic also touched on farmer suicides and the students suggested ideas as to how these areas could be made prosperous. Another one, 'politicians should be made to work for free' had the audience in splits, courtesy a video clip shown on how our politicians indulge in relentless squandering of money.

The panel of judges comprised Debjyoti Majumdar, the dean of the institute and economics professor Rath.
