The Federation of Indian Chambers of Commerce and Industry (FICCI), in collaboration with the Indian Council for Cultural Relations (ICCR), is organizing a Global Essay Writing Competition “India and the World after COVID-19”.
2. The theme of the Essay writing competition is: COVID-19 has definitely changed our world forever. But where is the new world headed? How has COVID-19 changed the way we live and work?

Contestants should summarize their ideas in a 3000-word essay written in English and title the Essay as ‘Entry to India and the World after COVID-19’.
