We know that we were engineers right from our childhood when we built that first paperboat or that catapult from a tree's twig.
To encourage this very idea of "creating with your own hands", the Chill pill event, Sanrachana, has been designed.
The participants are given a problem statement along with the required materials (like ice-cream sticks, straws, pins etc.) and they have to come up with a working model based on the given problem statement. This they have to accomplish within the given time and as per the rules and regulations.
So fold your sleeves up as the fun gets unfolded and give your creative-self a treat!
Single round event
One individual round each day
Each day, a new problem statement will be given
Design
Stability
Others: Depends on the problem statement given

In case of a tie, judge’s decision will be final
