In the finals Swimmers from Andhra Pradesh, Telangana, Kerala,
Karnataka, Tamil Nadu and Puducherry (Southern States of India) represented. It was nice to see kids really motivated with the Swimming. The

the all three days and it was an enriching and motivating experience for Prajval

It's a tough balancing act between studies, swimming and peer pressures. But it's good to see that the kids are able to balance and prioritize them. Wish him luck for all the future competitions.
