The goal of eRaksha competition is to enable young people across age groups to become responsible digital citizens, following the required safety norms and procedures.

The Competition provides an opportunity to share the immersive experience and ideas of youth in cyber security with the nation to understand and imbibe cyber security, threats, challenges, and safeguards while designing their original submissions. It also gives them opportunities to enhance their knowledge and skills, collaborate and network with domain experts and learn by solving complex challenges during the Cyber Camps organised by CyberPeace and NCERT.

Participants are required to create and share posters, banners, videos, reels, shorts, essays, blogs or software applications aligned with the theme. All entries should be original, and unique. The last four editions of eRaksha received thought-provoking, valuable and creative submissions from participants across the whole nation. We look forward to receiving innovative, creative, and artistic entries across different categories.
