Those who competed well were qualified for the next round. Qualified competitors for the third round had to go through a buzzer round where they were given questions based on India. The winners of this round were recognized as national winners of R-Evolution Ops 10.0 and were qualified for International rounds.

International rounds were also buzzer rounds where competitors had to answer general knowledge questions from different sectors from countries all over the world. Winners were awarded with trophies, certificates and cash prizes. 
All the members who participated from our club had a good time. Our team was invited as the Chief Guest for the cultural talent show “Sanskrit” and the Art exhibition organized by the students of DYPVP institute, which was a great experience for all the participants from our club.  

Throughout the journey, each and every one from the RACDYPVP was so supportive, indeed was like family. Members of DYPVP guided us from Bangalore Airport since the very first day we landed to the very last moment we were in India and took care of everything. With the help of RACDYPVP we visited Shanivar Wada, Agha Khan palace, street shops, malls and amazing restaurants. President of Rotaract Club of DYPVP Rtr. Pranav Bankar, Secretary Rtr. Shravani Kharat and International Service Director Rtr. Pushparaj Patel from RACDYPVP did a major role and was very grateful for all the participants.
