The annual Kalaa Devi 2025 art competition, organized by the KLE Technological University (KLETU) in Hubballi, witnessed a remarkable showcase of young talent, with girl students emerging as the dominant force. The event, held recently, saw female participants secure an impressive eight out of the nine prizes awarded across three distinct drawing categories.
A Resounding Victory for Young Female Artists
The results highlighted the exceptional artistic skills of the participating girls, who outperformed their peers to claim the majority of accolades. The competition, which is a key annual event on KLETU's cultural calendar, aims to nurture creativity and provide a platform for students to express themselves through visual arts. The overwhelming success of the girl students this year has drawn significant attention and praise from educators and parents alike.
Fostering Sustainability with 'Best from Waste' Exhibition
Parallel to the drawing contest, the university organized a special 'Best from Waste' project exhibition targeted at high school students. This initiative was designed to promote sustainability, innovation, and environmental awareness among the younger generation. Students displayed creative projects crafted from discarded materials, turning everyday waste into functional and artistic items. The exhibition served as a practical lesson in resourcefulness and the importance of environmental stewardship.
Celebrating Creativity and Conscious Living
The dual events—the traditional art competition and the modern sustainability exhibition—created a holistic environment that celebrated both creative expression and responsible citizenship. By integrating themes of environmental consciousness with artistic endeavor, KLETU's program underscored the role educational institutions play in shaping well-rounded, aware individuals. The positive response to the 'Best from Waste' segment indicates a growing engagement with eco-friendly practices within the student community.
The successful execution of Kalaa Devi 2025 on 01 December 2025 has once again established KLETU Hubballi as a hub for fostering both artistic excellence and innovative thinking among Karnataka's youth.
