Both oral and poster-presentation manuscripts shall be published in Students' Journal of Physics (formerly Prayas) of IAPT.
We can only select finite number of participants for three categories (oral, poster, only participation) due to financial and logistic limitations. We wish to give opportunity to as many students, as possible, from various colleges/universities spread all over the country.
