The 2nd Ahmedabad regional tournament in 2017 was held by ARC Foundation at J.G.International School. Some of India’s best university debaters- Chandrasekhar Sriram (former WSDC Team India alumni), Ronit, and Sudarshan- took workshops for the students, post which they had two rounds of incredibly competitive and high-quality debating on themes like military and free trade. The top 12 speakers from the tournament made it to the next leg of selections, from which the candidates for national tryouts were filtered.
