Day 1 concluded with an evening concert featuring original music composed and performed by JNU students and professional musicians, alongside spoken word readings and visual arts by Santiniketan-based artist Wu Weixing. The programme was focused on relations between India and China and their border regions, and expressed profoundly the bittersweet nature of such experiences.
