Technical Hackathon

Chakravyuha - The Engineering Hackathon Chakravyuha is a 24-hour national-level hardware & software hackathon where innovators, students, and researchers step into the arena to solve real-world challenges in Agriculture, Healthcare, Disaster Management, Green Technologies, and Smart Education. Much like the legendary Chakravyuha formation, this hackathon tests strategy, skill, and resilience pushing participants to break through layers of problems with creativity and teamwork. *Note : Mandatory!!

Evaluation Criteria: Creativity & Innovation Technical Execution & Functionality Feasibility & Practicality of the Solution Presentation & Demonstration Rounds: The number of evaluation rounds will be announced during the inauguration ceremony. Project Development Guidelines Original Work Only: All hardware prototypes must be developed after problem statement release. No Pre-Built Projects: Any pre-developed solutions will result in disqualification. Third-Party Resources: Use of commercial modules, public libraries, APIs, and frameworks is permitted, but the core work must be original. Safety First: Teams are responsible for the safe and ethical use of all components, devices, and tools. Submission & Evaluation Progress Documentation: Teams must submit geo-tagged photos and short video clips documenting their development process, starting from the hackathon kick-off. Final Evaluation Metrics: Relevance to the chosen theme Functionality & Technical Execution Innovation & Novelty Scalability, Sustainability & Real-World Impact Software Hackathon Guidelines Event Format & Process Duration: 24 hours of continuous coding. Problem Statements: Released at the start of the hackathon. Evaluation Criteria: Creativity & Novelty Technical Execution Feasibility & Functionality Presentation & Documentation Evaluation Rounds: Number and structure of rounds will be announced during the inauguration. Project Development Guidelines: Original Work: All code must be developed during the hackathon. Pre-built/AI-generated components may be used at a minimal level (subject to judges’ discretion). Third-Party Resources: Public libraries, APIs, and frameworks are allowed. Code Ownership: All code must be authored and maintained by the team members. GitHub Repository Requirements Repository Setup: A private repository must be created by the Team Leader. Naming Convention: Chakravyuha25_<Team_Name> Commit Rules: Commits must be made at least every 2 hours to ensure transparency of progress. No code pushing or pulling is allowed outside the official 24-hour coding window. Final Submission: The repository link must be submitted before evaluation for judges’ review.
