After our unfinished argument yesterday, we went back to our resort and started collecting specific details and evidences to prove the opponent wrong. We wrote down short speeches for each moderated caucus topic given by the chairperson during the last committee session yesterday. Also, we went through the format of a resolution and the criteria so that it would be easy to write the resolution on spot today. We began motioning for moderated caucuses and of course a few unmoderated caucuses in between to discuss the important points with all of the delegates and make them agree with our point of views. At the end, we proved the opponent wrong by having a one-on-one debate. We asked them why they didn't place a court order to reopen their factory if they didn't feel guilty of committing such a disaster. They couldn't refute that one powerful statement, because of which we won the argument. But that wasn't the ultimate goal of the session. The aim was to create a resolution which would help the affected employees and people. So we all sat together and wrote the resolution with perfect criteria followed through out from start to end. Guess what?! Our chair said "Delegates, this is an insanely amazing resolution. Generally, passing a resolution would be extremely challenging, but you have done it brilliantly. This resolution, therefore, clearly passes!" The amount of excitement in me was greater than the power of infinity. Our chair then gave all of us individual remarks. And this is what he remarked for me " You were crucial through out the all committee sessions. You gave three very important points which i expected from the delegates, but nobody else gave. You had no inhibitions while speaking and were very confident. Also, you were active during the unmoderated causes. That is the strength you need to be a best delegate. Good job!" I have to say, I was amazed for a second! Finally, we had our closing ceremony at the same place we had our opening ceremony at. All chairpersons came up to the stage and talked about their experiences with their committees, and how exhilarating it was to be chair for the first time. They also received awards for chairing the committees. Then, each chairperson announced the awards for their committees. The last chair to go on stage was ours. He came up and said that it was so hard to choose the winners as they all had a very healthy argument. He then announced, "The verbal mention award goes to Delegate number 1(me!)". I immediately stood up and tried shaking off the shock for a moment while everybody around me applauded. I didn't get the Best Delegate award, but i am proud of myself for what I achieved. Many of my friends in the other committees got different awards as well. After giving away the awards, the vice president came up to the stage and announced the winner of the Best Delegation award. We (TIPS) were the winners as most of us got awards and performed the best overall! He called us all up onto the stage and handed over that glorious trophy! After enjoying the moment of pride, we thanked the management for their limitless effort to make this IIMUN a success and hugged everybody a bye! After clicking a lot of pictures, we went to the Kodaikanal lake, walked around together and then ate pizza for dinner at Papa Jones before we headed back to our resort. At the resort, to celebrate our victory, we had a camp fire and enjoyed insanely... Duration : 8 hours
