The participants will be clubbed in three different categories — Class I to III,Class IV to VI and Class VII to X. “JJ School of Arts will select the top 200 entries from each category,which will be reviewed by a panel of judges who will then shortlist 15 doodles from each category,” Rungta says,adding that all the final entries will be exhibited for public voting to select a winner from each category. Dennis Hwang,the original Google doodler,will then choose the final winning doodle from 45 finalists.
