CSIR hosts 'CSIR SciQuiz' on the MY Bharat youth portal

The Council of Scientific and Industrial Research (CSIR) is hosting 'CSIR SciQuiz' on the MY Bharat portal, a science-themed quiz aimed at engaging young people through the government's youth engagement platform. MY Bharat (Mera Yuva Bharat) is an autonomous youth-development initiative under the Ministry of Youth Affairs and Sports, launched on 31 October 2023 as an online Youth Leadership and Social Engagement Platform intended to empower young Indians to become active citizens and community leaders; it has since hosted a range of quizzes and engagement activities, including the Viksit Bharat Quiz. CSIR, India's premier scientific research organisation under the Ministry of Science and Technology, running a dedicated quiz on this platform reflects the broader push to popularise science and scientific temper among youth through accessible digital formats - useful context for General Awareness questions on both government youth-engagement platforms and CSIR's own role in Indian scientific research.
