Vengara: A good number of the officials, parents and teachers witnessed a tough time at the other stages set for the competitions. There were no shops or water supply available at nearby areas. The contestants were exhausted and almost desiccated by the atmosphere which welcomed them. Most of the students fainted on the way, and the officials were also helpless to offer the participants the needy support.

The people were heated up by the attitude of the committee members- who washed off their hands during the emergency times. There were people commenting about the irresponsible mannerism of the committee members of not treating the huge populace well. 

AN IDEA CHANGED EVERYTHING

Vengara: In fact, it was a nasty time and humiliation for Manorama daily- on the second day of the fest. The caption writing competition gave a high tide fury. The photo clicked wasn’t the right choice and it led to all upcoming troubles. The photo portrayed a boy sitting with cops. The photo doesn’t sound anything weird to anyone, but the parent of the child was annoyed by the treatment of media; taking the click without the permission.

The problem elevated conflicts and controversial between media and the parent. The parent shouted, bowled and smashed the things at the stall.

JUDGES BREAKING THE NORMS

Vengara: The mobile phone usage by the board of judges during the performance of participants shaped chaos in the minds of the audience. The judges breaking the norms of the fest became a normal scene at some stages. As the judges are hanged on their phones they don’t see the performance of the students. This arrogant mannerism from the jury corner has created disappointment and rage among both audience and participants.

While the tough beat of competitions are on their walk, the reckless attitude of the judges leads to a notion- the judges have decided the winners before the staging of events. Many suggestions have lifted up from the viewer’s side like; the jury panel should shut their mobile phones during judging the competitions. As per the manifesto of the youth fest, no jury members are allowed to use their mobile phones or deliver any signals that built problematic situations.

The members of the program committee should have remembered the fact that it’s not the duty of small sum of people to bring out a program well. But is a brilliant effort from all corners-school, teachers, members, affiliates of all other committee, participants, jury panel and finally the audience.
