Know Your Army Quiz Initiative Connects Youth with Indian Armed Forces

NextGenInnov8, in collaboration with the Defense Force League, has launched the Know Your Army National Quiz to strengthen youth connection with the Indian Armed Forces. Aimed at students, this initiative runs across three levels to impart knowledge about the Army's history and contributions to national security.

An ambitious initiative aimed at bridging the gap between youth and the Indian Armed Forces was launched by NextGenInnov8 in collaboration with the Defense Force League. The Know Your Army National Quiz was inaugurated at the Param Veerangana - Mission Shakti ceremony on February 16, 2025, at the Pimpri Chinchwad Science Park. This national-level competition is designed to raise awareness among students about the Indian Army's rich history and significant contribution to national security.

The chief guest, Hon'ble Lt. Gen. Nirbhay Sharma, emphasized the importance of educating young minds about the sacrifices made by India's soldiers. By hosting the quiz on the BrainPulses platform, the initiative provides an interactive learning experience, encouraging participants to delve into the valor and dedication of the armed forces. Students will compete in a multi-phase event, starting with an online round followed by regional semi-finals and a grand finale.

The competition aims to nurture patriotism and national pride, engaging students from classes 8 to 10. With support from prominent figures like Dr. Arvind Natu and Ex-Commando Raghunath Sawant, the quiz aspires to leave a lasting impact on the participants. The event was also marked by recognizing exceptional contributions, including awarding a Lifetime Achievement Award to Smt. Pratibha Patil, adding further gravitas to the launch.
