📌 About the Event
The Bharat GI Quiz 2026 is a premier national digital literacy initiative hosted by the Department for Promotion of Industry and Internal Trade (DPIIT), under the Ministry of Commerce and Industry, in collaboration with MyGov India.
Aligned with the Prime Minister’s “Vocal for Local” and “Local Goes Global” directives, this virtual challenge is designed to celebrate and raise public awareness of India’s Geographical Indication (GI) products. The quiz challenges citizens to test their knowledge of the country’s unique regional assets—spanning traditional textiles, distinct agricultural products, handicraft histories, and indigenous manufacturing frameworks that hold legal GI protection.
