Zara Bakshi, from Glenmark Aquatics Foundation and Arman Jetha, from Otters Club, emerge best in their respective 50 metres, breast stroke, butterfly, individual medley and free style events in their sections. While for Zara  it was almost like cake walk, leaving her rivals  way behind, in all the events she took part, but it was not in  the case for Arman, who was given a fright, especially in the 50m free style.
