The Department of PG Commerce organized various competitions on 13 August 2026 as part of the 80th Independence Day Celebrations. The competitions were conducted to create awareness about the significance of India’s freedom struggle, encourage patriotism, and provide students with opportunities to express their creativity, communication skills, and talents. The events included Tamil Elocution, English Elocution, Drawing, and Cooking without Fire.

            The competitions were conducted systematically under the guidance of the faculty members. Each competition was evaluated by qualified judges who carefully assessed the students’ performances based on relevant criteria. Two judges evaluated each competition, while three judges evaluated the Cooking without Fire competition, which included both UG and PG students. A total of 76 students enthusiastically participated in these competitions.

The Department of PG Commerce extends its heartfelt gratitude to all the well-wishers and sponsors who generously contributed prizes for the 80th Independence Day competitions. Your valuable support, encouragement, and contributions motivated our students and made the prize distribution ceremony memorable and successful.
