The best way to propose a change is to start a [discussion](https://github.com/CodeChefVIT/papers-codechef/discussions) on our CodeChefVIT GitHub repository. Begin by creating a new discussion, write a brief problem statement that clearly explains the issue you want to address, without tying it to any specific solution. It doesn’t need to be long or formal; just provide enough context to clearly understand the problem before discussing possible solutions.
