The fest is honoured by the Chief Quest Angshuman Siddhanta. Angshuman Siddhanta is a sustainable cold-chain expert at the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP).

This annual fest is also intended to facilitate an effective dialogue between the students and the college fraternity at large. It also aspires to promote cultural exchange and friendly interaction among students from various Delhi university campuses.
In addition to the formal sessions and cultural events, we had competitions opened to all the Delhi University students .
