Annual Competitions
Competitions
Organizing competitions under the banners of Vivekananda-Cultural, Vivekananda-Yoga, and Vivekananda-Run Competitions can serve as a remarkable platform to unite communities, encourage wellness, and honor cultural diversity.
By invoking the name of Swami Vivekananda in the title for these competitions, a revered figure known for his contributions to spiritual and cultural revitalization, these competitions can inspire participants to strive for personal excellence and community involvement.
These competitions are usually held in the last four months of the year (from September to December).
1. Vivekananda Cultural Competition
The Vivekananda Cultural Competitions were established in 1985. Initially aimed at college students, these competitions later expanded to include school children as well. Recitation of Bhagavad Gita, Quotations of Swami Vivekananda etc. were conducted along with several other competitions.
A nominal registration fee of ₹5 is applicable for all participants per competition. Students from government schools are exempt from this fee and may register for free.
