Lucknow Students Celebrate India's History and Culture in National Essay Contest

In an effort to promote intellectual and creative growth among students, the basic education department in Lucknow is organizing the Shri Aurobindo National History Essay Competition 2025. The competition, which runs from November 10 to December 15, is open to students enrolled in state-run schools and Kasturba Gandhi Balika Vidyalayas (KGBVs).

The competition aims to inspire patriotism, self-expression, and a deeper understanding of India's history and culture. Students in classes 7, 8, and 9 will have the opportunity to express their thoughts, language abilities, and sensitive understanding of the country's past. The essay topics will highlight unsung heroes of the freedom struggle, India's cultural renaissance, the preservation of ancient heritage, and the great personalities who contributed to nation-building.
