The ones that are received after the due date will not be considered. The community members have also been asked to ensure that the forwarded report page(s) are complete and the name of the child, school, grade or class are clearly visible. Decision of the organising committee shall be considered final.

Children who have completed Hifzul Quran after September 2003 will be felicitated and awarded a special prize on submission of appropriate evidence from their school/madressah.

The organisers said that a special talent award would be presented each to a boy and a girl, considered to have achieved highest excellence in academics. Appropriate recognition certificate or prize/trophy in the field of education awarded by recognised institution should be provided, they said.

They requested those who wish to contribute cash towards the cost of prize items to contact any member of the organising committee.
