The competition has been organised by the Women and Children Dasara sub committee and will be held at J.K. Ground on October 13. It will take place from 4.30 p.m. to 5.30 p.m.

Only the first 50 registered participants will be allowed to take part, according to a press statement. Participants can register by contacting 9164915133 or 7795624396.

Rules for participants

Participants must bring all the required items, including ingredients, to the competition venue. Pre-cooked items, chopped vegetables and chopped fruits are strictly not allowed.

Only on-spot preparation will be permitted, and participants must prepare the food in their allotted place within the one-hour preparation period. Each participant will have to complete the task independently and cannot take assistance from others.

Any participant found receiving assistance will be disqualified from the competition. The judges’ decision will be final, according to the press note. The registration window and the limit of 50 participants mean that eligible women who wish to take part will need to complete the process before the stated deadline.
