State Level Economics Quiz Competition

Department of Economics, Nirankari Baba Gurbachan Singh Memorial College, Sohna, has organised a state-level economics quiz competition on 18th October 2022 in Seminar Hall, Alwar-Road Campus. The Eight teams, namely; Ahir College Rewari, GVM Girls College Sonipat, Govt. College Bawal, Govt. College Dubaldhan (Jhajjar), NGBSM College Sohna, Govt. College Nagina (Nuh), JLN Govt. College Faridabad, and Guru Daronacharya Govt. College Gurugram were registered for the economics quiz. But due to their circumstances, two colleges, i.e. GVM College Sonipat and Govt. College Bawal have been not participated. The quiz started with a formal welcome address by Ms Jyoti Jain (Faculty Economics). Dr Satpal (Quiz Convener) welcomed Dr Subhash (Associate Professor GD College Gurugram) special guest of the event, with a bouquet.

Ms Jyoti Jain gave all participants an outlay of the quiz before starting the quiz, as the first round was from the microeconomics conceptual questions (MCQ). All questions were equal marks, five marks each. The second and third rounds were from macroeconomics and development economics, respectively. The fourth round carried queries from the relevant diagrams, and the fifth and final round was rapid-fire type questions (time was fixed as 1 minute).

We have provided trophies to the top three winning teams and certificates to all 18th participants. To make the quiz interesting for the listeners, we asked the audience some questions during the quiz rounds, and if they answered correctly, we were given a pen of Rs. 10 as a gift.

After lunch, the quiz results were announced, and the prize distribution function was conducted. Our College President, Honourable R.S. Minhas, was the chief guest of the function, and Dr Amit Kumar (Coordinator) was our special invitee to the event.

The honourable President has provided trophies and certificates to the winning teams. Ms Rohini Jha (Faculty Economics) has been given certificates to all the quiz participants. The event was successful. Mr Shekhar Gautam (Faculty Commerce), a few other faculty members, and 40 students (from graduation and post-graduation in economics) were presented during the event. The quiz was well received and a gainful experience for all.
