The contest aims to promote the use of various popular languages and to enhance the orthographic abilities of the students, it includes two main subjects as Hindi & English. It provides a comprehensive and complete evaluation which is based on different aspects of language like vocabulary, phonetics, Dictation, Grammatical skills, analytical points and understanding of given context. The Competition is particularly framed to polish and improve the language capabilities of learners of various levels. English- is a global communication tool worldwide, a good and an in depth knowledge of this language gives one the necessary confidence and exposure to move successfully ahead in life so keeping all this together, we come up with this contest to nurture our young minds. As the language should be studied thoroughly and with all the basic concepts keeping in mind, this competition will exclusively meet all the important aspects of language woven together. Hindi- It is regarded as our national and mother tongue but so far no concept has made to highlight and emphasize on the importance of learning and more importantly understanding it properly. As a result, we innovate the idea of creating an environment where all Indian students should learn and enjoy the language as equal as other global languages. The students often do not learn Hindi language in a proper manner due to the ignorant attitude around them so this contest because of its easy approach and style will be of great help to learn and use the Hindi language from the very basic aspects.
