Delighted at this achievement, Mrs. Sakshi Gautam Mishra, Principal, Amity International SchoolYVC, Lucknow, said, “It is yet another glorious moment for us as our student has been selected in this prestigious competition. It is laudable that our student has a keen literary interest at such a young age and showcased her immense talent by being chosen amongst 75 authors.” 

The applicants were asked to choose between fiction or non-fiction for their entry and Kainaat chose the former. The criteria required submission of 5000-word(max) manuscript on the tales of the Indian national struggle.  Kainaat’s manuscript is titled, ’The Tarsier,’’ named after the main character and his namesake- the Southeast Asian primate.  The story is based on “The Delhi conspiracy case” -an assassination attempt at the viceroy of India in the early 1900s. Kainaat’s 3000-word entry reimagines the attempted murder of Lord Hardinge through the eyes of an eleven-year-old waiter. The story features a bespectacled young boy with an unusual name and even more unusual thirst for knowledge. Tarshi, the protagonist is clever and astute, he understands the problems his country faces with more depth than most adults.
