The 13th edition of the International French Spell Bee, organized under the visionary leadership of Mr. Haru Mehra and the highly committed Le Frehindi team, was truly a remarkable academic experience. As a jury member, I had the privilege of witnessing outstanding linguistic talent displayed by students from schools across India and abroad.
