The first prize at State-level will receive Rs one lakh followed by Rs 50,000 for the second place and Rs 25,000 for the third place. It is a practice to conduct Tech Fest every two years, but not held in 2020 due to corona pandemic. However, this year it is planned well in advance and for the first time, cash awards are also announced to encourage the student community of polytechnics.

Joint Director V Padma Rao, Secretary SBTET K Vijaya Bhaskar and other DTE officials participated.
