Some of the students did not receive their certificates and mementoes in protest against the officials who turned off the music while their performance was still on. Both students and the organisers entered into wordy duel over the issue and finally, the students walked out without receiving their certificates. The Yuva Sambhrama Committee members said that the music had to be turned off as the students had exceeded the time slot given and they had to also provide opportunities for other teams.
