The announcement of the three-week curfew till 14 April, and the possibility of further extension has disrupted all schedules. Journalists wanting to enter have been complaining they have no access to their offices for validation of their entries, or to access their archives, etc. For the administrative team coordinating REDINK work, it is also proving to be difficult to process applications and begin the judging work. 

 

In these circumstances, it has been decided to allow journalists to continue to enter their work TILL FURTHER NOTICE. Once the situation lifts, we will put out an alert well in advance on the CLOSING DATE. 

 

Meanwhile, we are happy to inform you that despite all the disruption, there has been an overwhelming response from all over the country, and more than a 1,000 entries have logged in so far.

 

Do take this opportunity of the extended time to send us your best stories
