At 2 pm, we will have the seventh edition of Chronosynclastic Infundibulum, an annual affair where Thejaswi Udupa goads people to read more genre fiction. This will be a written quiz for teams of two. There will be prizes for the top 5 teams.

At 4 pm, Ochintya Sharma will make a long pending return to the stage and conduct an Open Quiz for teams of four. There will be prizes for all finalists.
