Twenty schools with about sixty participants from different parts of the country as well as from Muscat took part in the literary competitions which were organised in four languages, namely, English, Assamese, Hindi and Sanskrit. The debate competition was held in English only. All the competitions were organised virtually with a wholehearted response from all schools. 

It is worth mentioning that two of the poems of the Gyanmalini Kobi have been translated into English this year by Ms Asfia Ahmed, a granddaughter of the poet who has been working on literacy and academic projects for women and children all over India and Dr Rakhee Kalita Moral, currently Head, Centre for Women’s Studies and Associate Professor of English at Cotton University and Head of the Department, English in Cotton College. Being present in the meeting  Mrs Ahmed and Mrs Moral spoke about the unique style and universal theme of the poems written by the poet which are relevant even after one and a half century now.
