G20 THINQ quiz competition National Semi-Finals concludes with eight elite teams qualifying for the finals
The Indian Navy and NWWA (Navy Welfare and Wellness Association) have, over the years, been conducting a quiz competition for school children as part of Navy Week activities. Christened “The Indian Navy Quiz – THINQ”, the 2023 edition of the quiz has acquired a global reach, riding on the partnership and support it has received from the G20 Secretariat in a year that marks India's presidency of the prestigious G20. Very appropriately, therefore, the event is also being called the G20 THINQ.
The quiz competition reached a thrilling juncture as the National Semi-Finals took place on 17 November 2023 at National Centre for Performing Arts (NCPA), Mumbai.
