+This month BangPypers collaborated with other python communities across India in organizing PyFlames 2021. This mega meetup was made possible by the efforts put in by the following communities:
+- [ChennaiPy](https://chennaipy.org/)
+- [HydPy](https://www.hydpy.org/)
+- [PyDelhi](https://pydelhi.org/)
+- [PyJaipur](https://www.pyjaipur.org/)
+- [Pyladies India](https://pyladies.com/)
+- [Python Pune](https://pythonpune.in/)
+
+With [PyCon India 2021](https://in.pycon.org/2021/) fast approaching we are coming together to organise a series of mega meetups called PyFlames 2021(as a precursor event to the conference), the first of which happened on Saturday, May 8th. This event saw an attendance of around 75 people with a lineup of 8 talks touching different domains and was concluded by an open-house session with the PyCon India volunteers and organisers.
+
+The lineup of talks looked like this:
+- "How to get started with Programming?" by [Hari Sapna Nair](https://www.linkedin.com/in/sapna2001/)
+- "The File Server" by [Vipin Kumar](https://github.com/vipin3699/)
+- "Building web apps for ML/AI using Python Streamlit" by [Suman Debnath](https://www.linkedin.com/in/suman-d/)
+- "Onwards and Upwards with Python" by [Subhashree Hazra](https://www.linkedin.com/in/subhashree-hazra/)
+- "The Joy of Programming" by [Anand C](https://anandology.com/)
+- "Ethical consideration while building AI Systems"- [Anjali Bhavan](https://www.linkedin.com/in/anjali-bhavan/)
+- "Build Serverless Python applications using AWS Cloud" by [Harsh Bardhan Mishra](https://www.linkedin.com/in/harshcasper/)
+- "Python and Flutter application for Colouring and Enhancing old photos" by [Utkarsh Mishra](https://www.linkedin.com/in/um07/)
+
+To conclude that packed agenda we had an open-house discussion with the organisers of PyCon India answering questions from the audience, we saw discussions ranging from volunteering to pointers on presentation of talks at PyCon India. 
+
+One of the highlights of the event was the rollout of the Early bird PyCon India tickets halfway through the event, which was a fine surprise to the audience. You can get your tickets [here](https://in.pycon.org/2021/#tickets)
