Like all good things, Verve, too, came to an end. The fun and games over, it was now time for speeches and applause. The Ground Auditorium was packed, with collegians waiting for their trophies. And EYF chairman Rajesh Rane and chief guest Vishwanath Karad wasted no time with their speeches.
Rane informed the impatient crowd that Verve was part of history. The cause of Pepsi-Verve 99 was also assisted by BLP Mobile, whose help ensured great communication amongst the organisers.
Speeches over, it was now time for the distribution of laurels. This was the moment the students had been waiting for. Every college had its students cheering and clapping wildly for their winners. All this despite the huge amount of dust assaulting the lungs.
There were 57 prizes to be distributed in all and each winner was accorded huge applause and cheers. But the moment all the students were waiting for was the overall winners category. The overall winners were the Army Institute of Technology, whose students went into a frenzy when their name was announced. They were yelling, shaking hands, congratulating one another while their representatives went in a huge group on stage to collect their trophy. Bharati Vidyapeeth College of Engineering came second and the third prize went to College of Engineering, Pune.
