Dear Young Minds,

Takhte Writers and Publishers warmly encourages young minds to participate in the ‘Online Elocution Contest’ to be held from November 11-14, 2022. This year use the platform in celebrating children’s day distinctively and boldly by making your voice heard.

We know you all love to talk and share your everyday boring as well as interesting experiences and thoughts with your friends, families and faculties. Many of you would be aware of the importance of speaking publicly and also doing so. Yes, if we at this age learn the power of communicating with multitudes and shed inhibitions, we are enhancing the voice culture.

For the contest, we have four prime elocution formats. You are welcome to choose one or all ranging from extempore, poetry recitation, speech and solo singing. Takhte opines that any soft skill, which we are gifted with, should be honed with age and time. Use the platform judiciously.

Please note the medium of language for all four formats is English. Also, find cues as under-

  1. Extempore- It is a time to showcase your spontaneous thinking and creatively assert ideas with precision. You will be given two minutes to speak on the topic, which will be shared there and then
  2. Poetry Recitation- If you love reading and learning poems. Come forward in reciting a poem of your choice. The duration should be not more than 3 mins. Mind it you cannot read and recite. Also, add some spice in balancing it with actions
  3. Speech- Speech is a powerful medium to convince and bring change. Stimulating listeners’ psyche and emotions. Raise your competitive spirit and speak on the topic, which will be shared with you a day before. The duration should not be more than 3 mins and you cannot read and speak
  4. Solo Song Singing- If you love listening to music and practising singing. It is a time to show your talent in singing a melodious song. Please note genres of music- Western Vocal and Keyboard are only allowed

Artificial Intelligence (AI) practices benefit India by addressing societal needs in healthcare, education, agriculture, smart cities, infrastructure, mobility, and transportation through dynamic data. AI can add one trillion to India’s economy by 2035. AI in journalism is also making a breakthrough. Faster news production, automated fact-checking, sentiment analysis for audience feedback, and the capacity to comb through massive volumes of data to find insights are just a few advantages of using AI in journalism. It can improve news reporting’s general quality, efficiency, and accuracy. Be it the use of AI in TV viewing experience, radio broadcasting, streaming services, music creation, or the social media industry, it is setting the bar as a game-changer in predicting content preferences, content moderation, and user behaviour analysis. This book aims to capture the progress of AI in media.

Poems

Don’t Let Yesterday hold You Back

Published

Song

Sadaf
Class 5
Gitanjali Vedika School, Hyderabad
(Budding Writer attending Takhte’s Creative Writing Sessions-Mentor Ms Goldie)

Chorus
Don’t let yesterday hold you back,
let’s get today on track.
Grab the new day,
And let yesterday fade away.

Verse 1
Sunlight shines on morning dew,
A fresh day and a hopeful hue.
Let’s leave behind the darkness of night,
And step into the morning bright.

Chorus
Don’t let yesterday hold you back,
let’s get today on track.
Grab the new day,
And let yesterday fade away.

Verse 2
Mistakes are made; Doubts may come up,
But let’s rise above to blow it up.
With every sunrise being a new start,
A fresh beginning with a new heart.

Chorus
Don’t let yesterday hold you back,
let’s get today on track.
Grab the new day,
And let yesterday fade away.

Verse 3
Learn from the lesson and let go of the pain,
Make sure it doesn’t happen again and again.
It’s a fresh day, and a new hope is born,
A brighter tomorrow, in a brand-new morn.

Chorus
Don’t let yesterday hold you back,
let’s get today on track.
Grab the new day,
And let yesterday fade away…
