Really it’s a good initiative on story telling.

I congratulate and salute Sanjana Thakur whose work has peaked to the overall winner alongside all regional winners. From Tanzania, I’ve myself entered the contest two times so far, and I view it as an ample opportunity to learn from great minds of writers from around the globe. Writing is one of the talent areas that has and will continue to cherish many readers’ brains through creative rendering of words, and I’m grateful for the Commonwealth Foundation to bring writers works to readers’ access.
