STEP 1 – SOLVE AND COMPLETE THE GRID BELOW.
STEP 2: COMPLETE THE BONUS FORM Click on the LINK Below. Use the same Email ID in BOTH STEP 1 and STEP 2. BOTH steps need to be completed for the submission to be complete.

BONUS FORM:

NOTE FROM ECLOGUE  Solutions to clues are entered cyclically in their respective rows and columns. For example, if 8 across started in column 3, it would proceed across to the right hand side for the first ten letters and then continue from the left hand side of the same row for the last five letters. Solvers must insert the solutions where they will fit using this method throughout. Only one of the across and one of the down entries start at their numbered squares. It may assist solvers to know that the letters in the squares representing the flag of India, which have also been marked with circles, in the central three rows, share the same letter in their solutions, albeit a different one in each case. When complete, solvers must discover the hidden seven-letter NINA within.
