Date: 18/10/2016
Venue: VIT Board Room
Time: 12:30-02:30

THEME:”Diwali”
Diwali, also called Deepavali or Dipawali, the Hindu festival of lights, is the most popular and special of all Hindu festivals. It is also an occasion for celebration by *Jains and *Sikhs.
The festival of Diwali extends over five days. The date of Diwali is set by the Hindu calendar so it varies in the Western calendar. It usually falls in October or November and because of the lights, fireworks and sweets involved, it's a great favourite with children.
The festival celebrates the victory of good over evil, light over darkness and knowledge over ignorance, although the actual legends that go with the festival are different in different parts of India.
*In Jainism people come together over three days and celebrate the Nirvana of Lord Mahavira and welcome in the New Year. Whereas for Sikhs, Diwali celebrates the release of the Guru, HargobindJi from imprisonment and people celebrate by lighting the way to the Golden Temple.

With keeping this theme in mind a general meeting was organized in VIT Toastmasters which was initiated by SAA Tm Rishabh introducing the basic rules of meeting.
The TMOD Tm Yash initiated the meeting with sweet and knowledgeable facts.

The meeting had four sessions.
First session was prepared speech session in which speakers were guided from their modules. Second session was Table Topic session in which members got a topic to speak with their instantaneous thoughts. Third session was Evaluation session in which evaluators gave their feedback for the speakers guided by modules and Fourth Session was announcing the winners (i.e. best speaker, best table topic speaker and best evaluator).New members of VIT TOASTMASTERS family justified their projects beyond expectations.
