Well, that was the world’s largest hackathon, which had seen nearly 10,000 engineering students participating in the 36-hour non-stop digital programming competition. The participants need to solve 598 problems identified by 29 ministries and government agencies. Narendra Modi Said “A series of issues have been placed before our youth to work on. The issues are challenging, but this is also an opportunity.” He said the true essence of democracy was “Jan Bhagidari” “Together we will solve all the issues that are affecting the nation,” “When you are innovating you may face setbacks but do not let those setbacks lower your morale or dampen your spirits. When you are innovating, remember that quality is key. Good quality products will bring changes in the lives of many people.” Well, the hackathon will continue until 8 PM on April 2. The competition winners will be awarded by Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) and will also form the community of Innovative minds. Well, the top three winners who came up with best solutions will be awarded Rs 1 lakh, Rs 75,000 and Rs 50,000. It’s nice to see Indian prime minister, Narendra Modi promoting innovation.
