Under the CBSE Reading Mission, the board has launched the Budding Authors Program, which encourages students to learn the art of storytelling to stimulate their inner creativity. Under this program, the students will get an opportunity to express their imagination and ideas, with a chance to see their work published. 

The competition will be conducted at two levels

CBSE Budding Authors Program consists of a two-stage event. The first phase event will be conducted at the school level which will be conducted between November 10 and 30. After the completion of the competition, the schools will evaluate and shortlist two students per category following prescribed guidelines. The stories can be written in English or Hindi Language.
