Lit Events

ESSAY
The structure of the essay to be written is styled in such a way that participants have space to apply in a logical pattern what they take out from their chosen quote/cartoon clip (which will be given on the spot) rather than merely discussing the same in a general and superficial manner. 
This essay writing competition is one that is solution driven and goes on to provide a tinted glass view of what applied sociology actually is, to not only the participant but also the ones who get to read and evaluate them. 
In a nutshell it can be said that writing this essay and further evaluating it leads one to a two way process of learning wherefrom both the participants and those student volunteers involved in organising and evaluating it get to benefit, thus further enhancing our sociological experience in this year’s SAMBANDH.

  • Rules:
  • ·        Individual event
  • ·        The essay should be between 350-750 words
  • ·        Strict adherence to the minimum word limit is advised since non-compliance results in disqualification of the paper and negative marking for the class

  • ·        Clearly indicate the topic you are attempting on the top of your paper
