# JUDGING PROCESS

~ The judges have been teamed up in pairs and both the judges will be reading the same set of stories and mark them accordingly.

~ The final marks of a particular entry will be calculated after taking the average of the marks from both the judges.

~ For maintaining the transparency, all the judges have been allotted a pseudo name which they’ll be using during the entire contest.

~ Any conversation between the judges or the judges and the contestants is strictly not allowed, until the completion of the judging process. Any conversation they can have is with the host.

~ The judges will be submitting their evaluation in two documents. In one document, you’ll be giving us the marks of all the stories allotted to you and in other document, you will have to compile the reviews of the stories.

~ Once, you’re done with the judging, you can submit both the documents to us by email. Please DM me for the Email ID.
