Hundreds of schoolchildren from Chandigarh, S.A.S. Nagar and Panchkula, who are members of the YEC and qualified for the finals, participated in the final round of the contests.

RYTS '99 included intelligence and general knowledge rounds followed by a competition in confidence and physical capability. The final round consisted of a display of aesthetic ability in which each contestant selected only one activity. While a number of participants opted for drawing and painting, others went in for dancing, singing, acting and even reciting poetry.

Principal Secretary, Punjab, J.S. Kesar, gave away the prizes to the winners.
