The second edition of the All-Jharkhand Music Competition, a Tagore Society sponsored event, wound up at Sakchi's Rabindra Bhavan on Sunday, with a prize distribution ceremony being held on Monday to felicitate the child artistes.
The winners at the event pocketed a cool Rs 2,000 as prize money while the first and the second runners-up received Rs 1,000 and Rs 500 respectively.
