Hackathons

Showcasing my participation in hackathons where I applied practical skills, teamwork, and innovation to solve real-world problems.

Smart India Hackathon

19 / 09 / 2025

Team Name: EcoYield

View Project →

Problem Statement: Farmers often overuse fertilizers, leading to higher input costs, soil degradation, and environmental harm, while still struggling to achieve optimal crop yields. A solution is needed to provide precise fertilizer recommendations that maximize yield and minimize waste.

No Rag Hackathon

Problem Statement: Despite strict regulations, ragging incidents in colleges often go unreported due to fear of retaliation, lack of anonymity, and slow response mechanisms. An AI-powered system is needed to ensure safe reporting, real-time detection, and swift action while protecting student privacy.
