They say democracy demands healthy deliberations on issues pertaining to our common life. Under the aegis of the ICSE Board ,we have been instrumental in nurturing that sense of diversified thinking on issues around our public life . The topic ' Exploring New World is a Contention for No Gain ' gave the young debators from fourteen different schools of Mumbai a chance to delve into the question of exploration , in a metaphorical sense which is a sword of Damocles in the intellectual world. The way the astute word - warriors put up arguments from both the sides made the eager audience spellbound!

After this display of intellectual gymnastics , the Dhirubhai Ambani students Miss Anushka Tandon and Master Apurva Gupta proved their acumen by becoming the well -deserving winners at this round of the zonal level competition. Bombay Scottish students lifted the runners up position at this show of teen -transcendence !
