The fifth edition of the Col N J Nair Memorial Inter-school Debate Competition will be held at Sainik School Kazhakkoottam on Wednesday.
As many as 22 leading schools in and around Thiruvananthapuram are in the fray this year, school officials said. The rolling trophy was instituted by the school in memory of Col N J Nair, an alumnus of the school who died fighting insurgents in Kohima in 1993. He was awarded the Ashok Chakra, the highest peace time gallantry decoration, posthumously in 1994.
T P Srinivasan, executive vice-chairman, Kerala State Higher Education Council, will give away the prizes to the winners.
