“For good ideas and true innovation, you need human interaction, conflict, argument and debate.”

Conflicting views and contrasting ideas are the essence of all great debates. The creative clash of ideas brings forth the innovative thoughts of young minds that touch many lives. Debate facilitates exchange of ideas and broadens one’s perspective.
