SM Sultan and his artworks were the topics for the participants under Ga Group in which schoolchildren from class nine to class ten participated.
\nThe schoolchildren copied famous artworks by the legends such as Cow Cart, Santal Couple, Cow Cart and Two Sisters.
\nPrimary school students Tripti and Diya, form Maddhya Badda, painted Zainul\u2019s portrait and copied Zainul\u2019s famous drawing Cow Cart respectively at the competition.
\n\u2018I love painting and I like to participate in art competitions. Despite a rainy day, I insisted mom to come here,\u2019 Trpti told New Age.
\nThe parents also appreciated Shilpakala Academy for organising such event. But, they showed concern for not announcing the results on the day.
\n\u2018They told us that the winners will be contacted over telephone, which is disappointing,\u2019 Monzila Hakim, mother of a participant, said.
\nFour students from each of the three groups will be awarded, said the
\norganisers.
\n\u2018We need to take time for proper selection,\u2019 BSA said an official.<\/p>\n
