Gusto, the annual fest of the Indira School of Communication, was literally low on energy and enthusiasm.
Participants had a harrowing time commuting to the venue as buses turned up late throwing the event schedules out of gear. The volunteers, who were supposed to control the crowd and maintain peace, themselves started misbehaving with the performers.
Despite all these, the Day Two of the fest saw a decent turnout of students and even a few events were interesting.
On Day One, World Heritage marked the theme of Indira School of Communication's fest, which saw a footfall of around 300 students. The fest kicked off with Quiz Zone, a business quiz.u00a0 The first day did have some interesting events such as 'Besura Singer', a competition for bathroom singers where the worst and most entertaining besura singer was being selected.
However, a few participants claimed that they had a tough time with the organisers as well. "The college is on the outskirts of the city so buses were hired to ferry students. But the authorities didn't inform us about the correct timings and the buses got delayed for hours," said Preeti, a participant from St. Mira's College.
Besides this, the results of the competitions were delayed by almost two hours claimed participants. "We were completely exhausted by the time results were announced," said Rina Choudhury, another participant. Around 1,000 students turned up on Day Two, making it much livelier than the inaugural day.
