Debate Competition

The venue was set for IIM Rohtak’s first ever verbal joust with six participants ready to tear each other apart, literally.

Thanigaivel Ravivarman initiated the debate proposing the topic “SEZ’s” by attempting to justify the government’s decision to implement the concept. His partner, Dheeraj Dinesh entered next and fired his points and completely nullified his stand. Dheeraj was impressive with the vast amount of points that he had to share and the brave face that he put up when the judges hurled tough questions at him.

Next to take the stage was Ritesh and Romesh to talk about women’s reservation in parliament. Both members had some interesting points to offer but they faltered when they had to face the questions put forth by the judges.

The final entrants were the eventual champions, Venkat Bhargava Sreedhara and Battaram Bharadwaj, who shared their views on the rather controversial topic -“Whether prostitution should be legalised in India”. They stole the show with their views as well as their vocal prowess.

Venkat Bhargava Sreedhara was chosen as the best individual speaker while his team won the Best team award.

The Literary club of IIM Rohtak has set in motion with this event and promises to bring in more such events to help students improve their communication skills and prepare them well for the corporate environment.
