The Sixth Annual Quiz Contest organized by Tripurainfo.com on the 28th August, 2011 in Town Hall Agartala has been another milestone in the history of ten years of its establishment.
This Sixth event in a series was a new version in its pomp and gaiety with participation of 864 contestants and more then thousand of audiences outpouring the hall's capacity. The people from all walks of life and of all ages specially the youngsters gathered to witness and enjoy the refreshing and inquisitive brain teasing day long exercise.
Shri Manik Sarkar, Hon'ble Chief Minister, Tripura too without missing the opportunity, graced the occasion with his presence and inaugural address, enthused the participants sixth time in a row and expressed his eagerness and satisfaction over the grand organization of the event in a renewed outfit with a noble cause of transferring the society to a well informed one, catching up with the latest developments and a young Tripura to face the world intelligentsia.
The Quiz was well attended by the Public Representatives, Senior Bureaucrats including Chief Secretary, Principal Secretaries, Heads of Offices, colleges,
institutions etc. Shri Ratan Lal Nath, the Hon'ble Leader of Opposition, Vice Chancellor of Tripura University, Director, NIT, Agartala, galaxy of visitors cutting across all professions - engineers, doctors, administrators, politicians, business community, literary figures, academicians, educationists, historians, scholars and students of various schools and colleges participated in the event. Royal family's Pradyut Kishore Debbarma too made his appearance and addressed the quiz enthusiasts.
The Quiz Masters Shri Abhijit Bhattacharjee from School of Science, Agartala, Shri. Bharat Jain from South India ( Hyderabad) and Shri Nandu Panicker, son of renowned educationist and former Principal of MBB College Shri S. M. Panicker and Anil Raja Bijan Corporate Communication Chief from ONGC conducted the event in unique style and appearances with impeccable presence of mind coupled with judicious mix of interesting and intriguing questions from large arena of fields covering humanity, science, art, culture, history, geography and current affairs. Quizzing was well interspersed with humour and wits which kept the audience glued to their seats.
The legendry Quiz Master of Tripura Dr. M. J. Panicker (a long associate and elder brother of Quiz Master Nandu Panicker and a star attraction of last years' event) mesmerized the audience with on-line quizzing and chat directly from Oman. His three prized questions each fetching Rs.2,000/- mandated for kids, ladies and gentlemen in the audience evoked a huge response and created pleasant surprise among the participants.
The organizers Shri Shekhar Dutta, Manas Paul, Jayanta Debnath and dozens of sponsors made tremendous efforts with a class Turn Out in motivating and enthusing thousands of participants from far flung areas of the State converging in the form of 16 teams, reducing to 8 teams in semi finals and 6 teams participating in the finals for further elimination to top three places to bag the coveted prizes of Mobiles, Desk Tops and Lap Tops.
The participation in Audience Rounds and Ruffle Rounds with rewards of Rs.10,000/-, Rs.5,000/- and Return Ticket to Kolkata was thunderous, the enthusiasm was seen to be believed.
The response from kids, youngsters and craze to reply questions defying the rules of business forced the Quiz Masters to continuously innovate and adopt new strategies with flux of ideas and compose the questions on current affairs, twisters, teasers using common sense and reflexes.
The semblance of art, culture, science, history-geography, psychology, physical principles, convergence, divergence, space, literature, current affairs, poetry, philosophy, films, contemporary events were beautifully interwoven, in form of questions.
The atmosphere was surcharged with Newtonian Principles, Karl Marx Theories, space travel, 'Bhanware Ki Gunjan', the ecstasy, melodies of yesteryears and what not, truly rejoicing moment and tool for personality development for one and all.
The well knit structure of the CONTEST consisting Audio-Video Rounds, Who am I, Sporting Events, Cultural and Musical Bonanza with religious and patriotic fervour and flavoured questions, culminating with Rapid Fire Rounds elated the standard of quizzing to international one.
It has always been a rewarding experience for me to take part in these events.
