Khadi Mahotsav Essay Contest

Khadi is the fabric of freedom struggle and the Father of the nation.

We are commemorating 50 years of formation of WMO/ESCAP PTC and RSMC New Delhi, which have helped in minimizing the death toll to double digit in the region due to cyclones in recent decades. As a part of the celebrations, the IMD is conducting a quiz competition to improve public awareness about various aspects of tropical cyclones in the region. 

The main objectives of the quiz competition are to:

1.  Create an awareness on the tropical cyclones over North Indian Ocean.
