Critical Thinking, Problem-solving skills, Design Thinking, and Creativity are the new age skills.  These skills give you a cutting edge.  They will differentiate you from the rest of the crowd. Sharpen minds, and problem-solving minds are the most sought-after now. These skills will be the future.  Rote learning and rule-based learning will be things of the past.  We don’t need intellectual coolies.  Such work will be done by Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning.  We need such skills which computers can’t do.  The survival of our country will depend on our human creativity.  Creative enough IT folks will develop new products, technologists invent new chips.  Being distinctive and unique, having a competitive advantage will help you survive in the competitive world, he said.   

Amit unveiled the competitive sheet and announced the commencement of the competition.  The participants aged 5 to 15 had to draw a painting, a creative drawing, or their imagination of the topic which was announced on the spot. The topic was “one dream of mine which I wish comes true”.  The children had painted on the theme. The competition went on from one hour forty-five minutes to two hours forty-five minutes depending on the different levels of the participants.
